The Veranda
Steel gray clouds coat the early morn's sky
Smoke like puffs float close by
Still~the oak leaves hang without breeze
Stagnant the air lies
Heavy rain soaked clouds biding time
Waiting to release tears
Earth awaits dried now from springs once
Steady flow, damp in arrears
A rainy Friday opens doors
To curl with a good book
Captivated by love's story
Give a romantic movie a look
A golden sun tries to peak through
Clouds so cold and steel gray
Gaining progress each slow second
As wispy clouds float away
Behind a sky blue sky awaits
Eager to kiss the sun
The birds delighted sing a tune
Each note the last outdone
Suddenly the sun seems to fade
Its rays covered again
What will come today who knows
Life can quickly change plans
A brief reprieve from glowing warmth
A gentle breeze soon stirs
Quiet pierces the air, birds' songs
Settles down, raindrops occur
