When The Clouds Are Crying Poem by Ernestine Northover
When The Clouds Are Crying
When the clouds are crying,
We feel like crying too,
For when it rains, the heavy drops,
Obscure the distant view.
The darkness crowds around us,
The gloom is oh so drear,
It seems to stay for an eternity,
It gives us little cheer.
We want to push it all away,
And give the sun some space,
To wallow in the warmth exposed,
And see that sunshine's face.
To feel the heat upon our backs,
And close our eyes in bliss,
Observe the shimmering heat haze,
And taste the bright sun's kiss.
So when the clouds are crying,
There's nothing we can do,
Except to wait and hope, then watch,
The sun come smiling through.

That is what I did today Ernestine, by the time I had finished my chores it was cloudy, but I still went out on my sunbed and prayed for the sun to break through and it did for 90 minutes of bliss. So refreshing as is this charming poem. 10 from Tai, a little browner but not nose wise! lol
I have to admit to being in the Scarlett camp. It feels cozy and drowsy with the rain thrumming on the roof and windowpane, enjoying a good book and hot tea. -chuck
Ernestine, I have to say that I love this poem because it is so well written, and it really brings images to mind....but I may be a backwards child because I love the rain...such a mood maker, as opposed to an overdose of sunshine! ! Scarlett
