Caveat: Poem #2460 "An unwise wager"
ㅁ
The sun appeared at dawn and seemed to glow.
I stepped outside a moment just to see.
Two hours passed. Clouds strolled in and set the tone.
My mind was shrouded by their grayish game.
I played my hand but lost to further rain.
- five lines in blank verse (iambic pentameter).

Through winter wood with snowy boughs above,
a wordless wanderer endures alone.
And burdened by necessity’s demand,
of bundled sticks and heavy deadfalls found,
begins with labored, crunching steps t’ward home.

Another writing day today... I do forget sometimes how much I enjoy writing in #BlankVerse! (An indulgence that might be a large part of my motivation for this piece...)

@jcnewmark I want to hear Mary Poppins singing that list! Doesn't rhyme though...
