That gradient of grey overcasting cluster of clouds.
The sky is always such a sight to see while riding in a car.

The shadows of doubt were following me since my life’s dawn,
Overcasting my thoughts so as not to find the place where I belong.
But You, my Lord, have shown me Your everlasting heavenly way:
Unconditionally, to love every being of your creation to this day.
For that, my heart, incessantly, Your glory would gratefully sing
Continuously working for the desired peace on this planet to bring!

I wake to crystals upon the white-dusted fields;
Billowing fog creeps around a logged-cabin.
The blazing fire of the smoky chimney yields
The frigid dews that drips from the icy pellets
Of the rosy ruby ribbon made from satin.
Overcasting clouds of haze grants us snow.
For the caramel drops upon the cocoa fox,
Scatters for warmth to bare it must grow.
To leave home to his vixen of bronze socks
That whimpers and howls through the winds blow.
Pebbles upon the icy stream skip and hop down,
The scouring cloves of gems with a drop profound
The earthly pleasures by the river bank of frost.
By tall conifers meeting the paths that crossed,
To other lands beyond the wintry battles around.

Elude the overcasting, for it's pale complete
The imprudent numbness frequent desperately
But besides a sample frailing without account
It is the conclusion that above a feeling abound
Within confide opress, a scale so height one thousand feats
Even a populated numb can't pursue your tallest stand
So inhale deepest the conscience notice, for once its own
A white tinged clarity so clear and post refined
It is now a truth inscision, spotlight of your whole
Awake a familiar essence once spilt and thoroughly dry
Dependence for pieces combined, not numbed nor excessive
Equal the dual sided heart tragic and partial bliss
You own only yourself, a self imbalancement fought for
A beauty and natural fracture, as what most beings are
Still strive to pose what human self you can accomplish
What humans most can achieve
A painting having an abstract background theme
Words of blend and coordination being the painting story
The word contrast being what was constructed within
Once you look at the painting your journey will begin
Words in showing the brightness of the sun
Centuries on earth living and still being among
Clouds overcasting mountains
Waterfalls dripping as shooting moving fountains
Beauty as the skies with the color of light blue
Today is a new day that one must pursue
The character in what the painting possess
One last chance to grasp and catch your breath
The feeling in how vision of the painting that is captured in words
What’s in the heart but is remembered in the mind
The painting having a touch with a very classy wine
Painting words with no need to say a word
Just observe and you will be the word in heard.
Once upon a time, the angels,
Having witnessed the predicaments of Man,
So moved were that their fluffy wings together joined
Overcasting the whole sky, and started crying
For
Humanity’s wounds to cleanse wished and
Alleviate its pain
Since then
Each time a prayer the angels hear, asking them
The aches of humanity to ease, their tears let fall upon
Earth, as RAIN!

NOTE: (For what it worth) The above story is not a repetition of a story told by someone else but a story I was inspired to create!
The overcasting
White clouds phase out the blue sky
Nature takes over
Leave
Not stay
Turn
And walk slowly away
As if said less words don’t leave
As if blank stares draw each out of avoidance
Overcasting the light that struggles hard to remain
