On the computer, picking at my cold sore,
I drew the curtains, above is what I saw,
For beauty, one couldn’t ask for more,
I was gobsmacked, as I looked in awe!
Life wasn’t so complicated or obscure,
There was hope yet, I was sure,
I forgot all about my credit score!
My zoochosis meant nothing, against this delight,
Magnificent colours and bending light,
Some pale, transparent, others being superbright,
I took in the gorgeousness, as well I might,
I forgot the hassle of Monday and yesternight.
I wanted to steal this inspiration, get the copyright!
How did the phenomenon occur, I lacked the insight,
It even beats the heavenly blue moonlight,
A plane flew by, lucky devils on that flight!
Not that I don’t love the days twilight,
What an incomparable, wonderful sight,
It’s even more desirable than toasted Marmite!
Rainbow, that’s an excellent euonym,
My self-control wandered, I felt grim,
Mind facts were substituted with skrim,
Dizzy Dennis was afoot, a thought-storm brewed!
For moments the brain froze, and logic stewed,
My head cleared, after a prayer and a hymn.
I no longer drink, or use tobacco,
Don’t play any instrument, no piano,
I do overeat and love a fresh tomato,
Eventually, semi logic I did re-bestow,
Thus ended this thought-storm fiasco!
No peace, no rest, from the unbalanced mind,
Sometimes from life’s hassle, I wish I could resign,
Oh, to find an existence that is gentle and kind,
Peacefulness, tranquillity, are so hard to find,
Even around here, with its lanes, tree-lined,
Why is life, so complicatedly designed?
Have I any right, to moan and whine?
The body and brain are both on the decline,
Red Dwarf’s on the box later, so never mind!
Beautiful poemalization and photographicalizations. Do you get rainbows often? We do in the summertime.
Thank you, Sir.
We occasionally get some rainbows, not often, and not as large as this one usually.
I bet the ones out there are on a grand scale?
Cheers!
We get some big, lovely rainbows out here.
I can imagine that, Tim. Vast skies!
I don’t know if you saw these from when I was posting on Zenfolio: https://photos.tandlphotos.com/blog/2017/7/rain-shine

No I’d not seen them, Tim. Glad I have now, though.
You even caught the plane one of them. I’m green with envy! Hahaha!

I very much enjoyed this ode and identified greatly with each stanza. As always, new words are something to savor: zoochosis filled the bill very well indeed. 🙂
Many thanks and TTFNski!
Stereotypic behaviour, a most handy little replacement, zoochosis. I only found it when for the life of me I couldn’t remember how to spell sterotypical. Glad I had to look it up now. Hehe!
Thanks, Bill. Best of luck!
