Golden Nugget

Rain is on the way, with cool damp air and cloud cover of gray
    A large golden nugget of sunshine is held in the mind with warmth
  To endure the storm brought by weather’s sudden decision to change

Lovely imagery.. sometimes in the middle of a storm is a beautiful, bold beam of sunshine. Reminding us that she isn't going anywhere. Really enjoyed this write!

Enjoyed Heidi :) there's been so much sun and heat, I'm fully charged;) the cool grey comes with a sense of relief today for the overheated and the scorched.

I must be odd. When it's raining, seldom do I think about the sunshine. I simply enjoy the rain. However this does make a great metaphor for life. Nice write Heidi.

Hi DT. The rain is nice, but sometimes it helps, when it comes to the dark gray. And yes, a metaphor for life. Thank you :)
