A word of the day poem
Saturnine
Golden striped orb
Dressed in rings of bright asteroids
A diva among planets
Saturn
The bringer of old age
Gloomy, taciturn
Melancholy
Sorrowful
Pity the saturnine
Cursed by beautiful Saturn
Comment: Saturn is so beautiful, but saturnine means gloomy and despondent. It's an interesting contrast.
I am in awe of people who can write poetry like this. It amazes me.
ReplyDeleteThank you, you're very kind to say so. I enjoy writing poetry and don't try it often enough. It's a benefit of the Slice of Life challenge.
