Drizzling dust

Drizzling dust

A Poem by Candle in the wind
"

Written for a contest-Advanced 10/40 Using all ten words,(Dust, only, paint, alibi, through, pencil, property, sprayed, organize, borrow ) in order, had to write a poem using exactly forty words.

"

Drizzling dust on my window
Only paints an alibi for my absent spirit
Some peer through
At a hazy pencil sketch of me
Listless property strewn
Sprayed with neglect
I have to shake off the gloom
Borrow zest organise life

This is what true talent is all about and that is why I'm again writing here that you are one of the most talented writers present here at Cafe!
This is exceptionally well, and conveying such a thoughtful message...Poems like this are always in my goodbooks :)
(In between, you forgot to highlight the word "alibi" I guess)
Brilliant piece of writing, Like always...!
