Life Storms

Today a gentle breeze swept over a warm contented earth, Tossing fluffy clouds in a teasing kind of mirth Indeed before the sun had sunk, thunder roared and surged The entire Heavens parted from whence a storm emerged Wrapped in sheer perplexity, I gazed and dared compare, We people living way down here with the Heavens way up there Do we not sometimes feel gay and shine just like the sun? But worry over nothing seems to storm out all our fun? Then we act just like a cloud burst and slowly we endow, To tell the world in general that the rain is over now. Forgive a silly contrast without a single link For this is merely something of which a fool would think.

Interesting comparison, but quite accurate, as life has both sun and rain, nice weather and storms. A very smooth and remarkable write.

Something of which a fool would think? Hardly! Brilliant minds dwell on those things the average take for granted. This was a fun read, thanks for sharing!

Yes, just as when we moan about the weather, we'd be lost without it, and tend to forget how lucky we are. Lovely write, Judy. Viv #7
