When the Day Is Dull

When the day is dull with no sunshine
It becomes a very dull day
In the morning it begins
In the afternoon spreads
Until the sky changes
Then the sun shines
For short time
Then hides
Sun

Hello Gershon, Yesterday it snowed and today the same. It is suppose to be Spring but winter wants to stay longer. It is already a long season. coated with snow. Spring is not Spring yet. Enjoy your day my friend.

It's amazing Darlene, how a dull day changes our colour perspective, it also reminds me not to waste a sunny day when the sun does comes back, here's to your next sunny day and your sunny writes . . . : )
