My Moody Hues

Some days my mood depends on me

sometimes you regulate it too,

 music in my head changes routinely

contingent on what is said.

Yes, I know it's a major flaw, 

but don't we have them all?

When you talk about moody, the first person who comes to mind is me. It is a sad state of affairs and even though with each mood change, I know exactly what is happening, there doesn't seem to be anything at all that I can do about it. believe me, I try, but my attempts are like trying to get a rock to float.

This was nice R&B. You do have a way of packing a lot into a small amount of words.

I think we all have it in us to be moody, the trick is being cognizant of why or so I've found. Thank you for your kind review jack.

[Jack...]

Oh. believe me, I am cognizant of why, I just can't seem do to anything about it. Smiling this morning though. :)

You nailed it, true to write thoughts.

I love Moody Blues..so Moody Hues caught my attention immediately... I find Music can have a great deal to do with moods... Yes we all have flaws.. Rose

A very good write about your mood that is short, concise and succinct. Very good use of brevity. Flow is good as is the line to line transition and breaks. Nice rhythm. Good depth of feeling. I can relate. Good word choice. Nice alliteration, assonance and consonance. Good closing couplet. Well penned. Write on!

[rhythm&blues]

Wow thanks Shelley, that's the most constructive review I've ever had, much appreciate your visit and review.

[rhythm&blues]

I misread the title as Moody Blues,a band I liked many years ago..
a poem with wisdom..

[rhythm&blues]

Funny you should say, I almost used that as my title, thank you Leslie.

Well, you know those creative types. They are a sensitive lot.
And yet, that is what allows them to see the both the beautiful and the ugly around them and make something meaningful from it.

Very well written. :)

[rhythm&blues]

Thank you Rogue and you're probably right. :)

This is an introspective piece... I think that we all experience the changes of moods on a whim, and some of us (particularly the creative types) experience it more frequently than others. I know that while I typically do not feel anger, I can go from exhaulted to sensitive and sad in a split second if something happens. I like that you use "music in my head" because for me music is always one of those things I can count on to regulate my moods...

Last lines:

Yes, I know it's a major flaw,
but don't we have them all?

I'm wondering if you are attempting to say "but don't we all have them", but need to keep your rhyme scheme...if so, I would suggest a comma or some other break after "them":

"Yes, I know it's a major flaw,
but don't we have them--all?"

Might help a little with the sentence. Overall, really enjoyed this one!

[rhythm&blues]

That's the way it came out, but I did happen to question that notion myself, it didn't seem to flow as easily the other way, but a simple comma might do the trick. Thanks always for your constructive reviews Sarah.

Love the title and the message therein. A short piece that speaks great volumes.
