The sky was gray bright
Clouds filled and beyond twilight,
The day was trying
But the heavens were crying,
It had been a long sad night.

The sun then broke through
Since rain had naught else to do
Sky tears in sewers
Sidewalk puddles are mirrors
With hopes to reflect some blue.

But returns the gray
It had not gone far away,
Blocking the sun light
Attempting to return night,
Settles for a weeping day.

Gloom

Though sun cannot shine
bright all the time
the grays are needed
to fill the rhyme...

thank you, Professor!

Not all can be sunshiny constantly, huh.  Kind of makes me appreciate the good times even more....

Thanks for this, Pat

But today the sun begins its shine.
Its warmth has trickled through the ice.
Days of gray may pass this way
but rise we shall, whatever price.

And cut right through the gloom of gray,
push the clouds with breath of sighs
soaking too, each day of new
past walk of gray in blue of skies.

Thank you, Sunshine
Filling rhyme with gray is what I do
It’s pleasurable to get a response from you

Thank you, Regards2you,
No, not all sunny, I tend to be just gloom
Glad you enjoyed

Thank you, Brad Majors
