Cloudy Day

Blankets of clouds
Over head
To many folk
Cause much dread.

When they split
And spill their life
Brings to me
A subtle time.

A time to think
Of all I have
A time to cherish
What's been had.

Looking to
The clouds above.
My heart does have
But one true love.

I hope she sees
The small sun ray
I think of her
Throughout the day.

From clouds outside
A gentle rain.
A calm smile
Upon my face.

If these storms
Bother you
Think of what
Life can do.

See the pride
In your mind
Let the rain
Bring out a smile.

For as the rain
Brings forth life
Enjoy the warmth
Of sunlight.

Kevin,

I LIKE this! Thanks for the reminder that rainy days have merit too. I kinda forget that at times.

Kevin,
  A wonderful reminder that happiness comes from the inside , something we control and not from external forces beyond our control.
The sunshine is only one cloud away! Thoughtful poem!
Dennis :^)

Moonbeams radiate
When the veiling cloud has passed
Playful shadows dance

Kelieth~
The rain is such a lovely time of reflection -
You've reflected nicely here.

'Let the rain
Bring out a smile.'


I call it a smilebrella !
Kind of a take-off on that old song,
'Let A Smile Be Your Umbrella'.

Enjoyed the read.

I'll remember this next time I have a cloudy day. Made me smile too

Sometimes you have to let go and move on,
But never let go of the memories.
