O dark clouds!
Blanketing the sky
With a swell of emotions
Rupturing with a mighty deluge
through your grey eyes.
Know Sidlak:
Sidlak poetry (sid/lak) is a structured poetry consisting of 5 lines with 3-5-7-9 syllables AND A COLOR. The last line must be a COLOR that describes the whole poem or the feelings of the writer.
nice sidalk poetry Radhika..
