Insipid
set in monochrome
dull overcast canvas drifts
the breeze plays a melancholic tune
paints a gloomy grey picture!

In response to Kat’s twittering tale # 69 . The challenge is : “This week, bringing back a stack of book titles for our challenge. Pick one title…or a few or all and tell me the story behind the words in 280 characters or less. See you at the roundup next week. Happy reading and writing! Have a great week!”
My take on the prompt:
Initially a small flickering flame, the fire soon developed into a raging inferno, blazing with all its fury, sparing none in its path, hungry, fiery, intense, exploding, scorching, on a rampage, choking the air, bellowing dark smoke in fifty shades of grey!

This time I am attempting a twin Sidlak, bringing out the opposites faces of the sea. Looking forward to your feedback.
#1
Slothful sea
echoes idling waves
ebbing gently on the shore
muted tides entrance the dreamy eyes
reflecting the blue expanse in a gentle harmony!
#2
Enraged sea
swollen with ire
thunderous rumbles lash out
monstrous waves building a crescendo
the grey sea sings a tempestuous opera !
