Through the Days of Overcast

Overcast

Cold and grey

I think I will stay home today

Not because I’m down or sad

The cloudy days make me glad

 —

I get to see the world asleep

Tucked warmly in their flower beds

A new perspective is all I need

To have a day well spent

 —

The days of warmth are out there still

I know they will return

Through the days of overcast

I’ll simply wait my turn

 —

And while I wait, I’ll find joy

Within the cold and grey

For the sun will shine again

And my days won’t stay this way.
