Gray Days Get a Bad Rap

Gray days get a really bad rap ~ They're ideal for a nice long nap We lament the absence of sunshine ~ The respite from heat suits us fine We miss those gorgeous blue skies ~ Now the sun doesn't get in our eyes And as for the increased chance of rain ~ Without precipitation, gardens stress and strain So the next gray day you get, don't complain ~ Just be grateful when the sun comes out again

I am loving the outside right now, a loud blustery full-blown storm with lightning and thunder. I am delighted for I will not have to water my flowers today!

Barbara, thank you for your kind words and encouragement. How about this deal? -- I'll learn from you; you'll learn from me; and we'll each learn from the other. Best wishes, Gershon

Shades of gray have their own unique appeal. Who doesn't like how things look in this mist? Nice write.

Yes, so true! And the tingle of the mist on the skin can be bracing as well. Thanks for the view and the viewpoint, David. Appreciated. ~ Gershon
