Sad Madonna

Ivory chiffon folds,
like her thoughts,
hang in the debris
of the night before.

Framed despair,
this sad madonna
work of art,
weeps for us
and all our broken dreams.

    Deep and thoughtful poem here to highlight the picture prompt. I like that you've used free verse to construct this piece, and the absence of superfluous wording lends itself beautifully to the overriding bleakness.

    Bravo!
