30 Word Thursday: Grey




Shiny steel and reflective glass take on a dull and ominous cast.
Above looms a foreboding sky, promising chill rains and whipping winds.
Earth's natural metallurgy turns gold to lead.
 
 
This is 30 Word Thursday:  Take a pic and write a 30 word story or poem.  It is that easy!  This week's pic was taken on a cloudy day in Leuven, Belgium, just outside our hotel at the entrance to the train station.  The contrast of modern glass and steel against ancient stonework was startling to me.

Marvelous image. The ominous sky is threatening, but the structure seems comforting in a way, a refuge from the coming storm. Beautiful image. Powerful words. Thank you for sharing your 30 Words! Enjoy the day. Erin
