Sky Watch Friday: Silver Skies





The skies were stormy this week.

Silver skies illuminate
The foreboding storm
Clouds rise like a curtain
And rain tap dances
On the street below

The sky looks bruised - looks as though it had a good cry.

Variance happening simultaneously, great foreboding and pleasure. Isn't it funny the way life often is? Sometimes one does not happen without the other. Very nice, Write Girl!
