Black wool clouds carried by currents float gently by, rain laden Above the sky-blue sky reveals jet streaks, clouds hold back morn's sun Bumble bees hum in unison Sun beams through charcoal gray Beautiful canvas painted by the master, in memory stay White blossoms cover the pear trees Holly's small blooms draw bees Early morn draws the poet's heart Like spring lures bird's glee As the sun's illumination rises higher through the trees turning gray clouds gold and tan The poet's heart begins to see Then the sun is covered with black Only slivers of gold remain, thoughts vanish in the fog Clouds drown the soul again Is there a solid opening? Will life continue disturbed? Can there be a valley of peace where a soul remains unperturbed?

This one is very poetic, Sara, how you drew it all back to the poet and the poet's contemplation of life when sky grows dark.

Andrea, We are going through a rough time again. God gives us trials to see how we handle the situation and if it matures us and also Satan can give us the blues if we grow in our walk with Jesus. It is hard to know which one is going on. I think this is from Satan though for it is not easy on me. Sara
