- Thick and Heavy -

The fog lies like a thick blanket over my city
                         It is gray, damp and heavy to breathe in
                         Grey and wet ..... gives me a headache
                     Morning turns to night, without any difference
                         I have to get the light and the sun back
                                 Neither cat or dog will go out
                                  I've heard about rain dance
                           Now I would like to take a sun dance
                              Will you join with me in my dance

How sweet, Anne Lise...I'd love to sun dance with you. I lived on the island of Cyprus where sun dancing was as easy as can be! You are a ray of sunshine to my soul. Thanks for your last post and encouragement! God bless!

I come from a place where the sun shines far too bright much of the time. Maybe we can trade? I really like the way you format most of your writing - centered and symmetrical. Being a visual person, the form, as well as the writing, has meaning for me. Keep up the good work! Jack

Lol, I sure will, Anne-Lise. It's about time we have a sun dance! It is gloomy and raining where I am at so I would love to see that sun just about now, lol. Oh well, I heard it will be in the 70's. So can't complain :). Cute write. Enjoyed!
