A Shaft of Light

The overcast sky, the drizzling rain, the weather dictates my mood again. Grey and black clouds block the sun. A dismal morning has begun. A break in the gloom is what we need as through the clouds a shaft of light bleeds. One small ray brings a lift to the heart. I hold my breath ... and watch the clouds part. ~~~ 09/02/2013~~~ for Seren Roberts Shaft of Light contest
