Change of Scenery

I was looking forward

To getting away

For inspiration.

I need more than

This cold grey landscape

To color my writing.

I'm starting to lose sight of verbs

With such an inactive setting.

Nouns are beginning

To seem cold and dull.

There are no more adjectives.

Even prepositions

Don't want to be here.

And participles are just

Dangling around.

I need a new setting

With more characters

And a plot

That doesn't involve snow.
