Brighter With Attitude
The sun is struggling to make an appearance,
To break through thick blankets of dark clouds
Early spring flowers note its disappearance,
Observing the day garbed in bleak shrouds.
Breaking through thick blankets of dark clouds
Mother Nature suggests waiting a day or so
Observing the day garbed in bleak shrouds,
Reminding us this is how April weather can go.
Mother Nature suggests waiting a day or so
Spring promising clear days of sunshine ahead
Reminding us this is how April weather can go,
When I first awakened I felt like staying in bed!
Spring promising clear days of sunshine ahead,
My thoughts rejuvenated, in a positive vein
My day will not be ruled by what’s overhead,
And those early spring flowers do need the rain.
My thoughts rejuvenated, in a positive vein,
I set about making the day brighter with attitude
And those early spring flowers do need the rain
So, I feel much better, choosing not to brood.
I set about making the day brighter with attitude
So, I feel much better, choosing not to brood.
