Ominous hues of black and gray
rolled through the skies
with grim ferocity
sucking even the brightest
of fall colors
from the trees,
leaving them to feel naked.

I love you pic, btw. A little fall color would definitely warm it up a bit.
For a second there, I thought I was going to do the break-through Scrabble thing, or is it Yatzee?
Where’s the missing angel?
That IS a scary photo. Are you really looking at that? It would make me ask myself: Am I saved? Am I one of the chosen?
We were on the same wavelength tonight KP...
Nicely written.
I played....G
I can't think of any other poem that would go as perfectly with that pic
Here's my attempt Time's Puzzle
I suspect it's more than a feeling.

(still don't know how to paste a link here- I copied it- cannot leave it...sorry)
They're threatening that kind of weather here this week. I can't say I'm looking forward to it - but your description makes it sounds exciting.
I'm up here
We seem to be in the same climate, at least poetically. I'd like to try your Sunday 160 if I can get back here in time. Cheers.
Gorgeous photo & a great 160 to go with it. Perfect for the season.
Mine is here
We rarely get those rolling clouds on my side of the mountains ... beautifully composed.
