The Future Arrives Tomorrow
The future looks bright with a red velvet sunrise
It will be many hours before clouds fill the skies
The day’s early light will foster the morning glory bloom
After being closed up all night it can’t come too soon
By late afternoon, it will be shaded by the bluff
The peace and tranquility shall be more than enough
A terra-cotta sunset will put forth a display
I can honestly say, it will be a good day

Linked to Linda Kruschke’s Paint Chip Poetry Challenge Prompt #35. This week the theme is The Future. The paint chip words and phrases are morning glory, red velvet, terra-cotta, and bluff. The three angel words are: honesty, light, and peace. The challenge is to use one of the angel card words to shape your future world and use all four paint chip words as colors.

Nice! I love the positive future you’ve envisioned, even if it’s only through tomorrow. Sometimes it is best to just look ahead one day at a time.
I think your poem sums it up for me; I couldn’t have said it as well as you just did.
A great poem for a great day, thanks Ron!
As usual, you wrote this so well! The couplets make the poem melodic and have more of a gentle tone.
