It’s so typical of this time of year; the sky is dark and gray.

However I will not look upon the sky with great dismay.

If I look I see the sun is shine even on this cloudy day.

Its rays may be filtered by the clouds that roll overhead today.

If one has the insight to realize it he sees the sun even in a raindrop.

It may rain today; it may come quickly and just as quickly stop.

When the rain has done its part the sun will shine in skies of blue.

It shines with rays of warmth and light and smiles at me and you.

Let not the gray skies cause you pain for they are a part of natures flow.

Mix the raindrops with the sun and trees and flowers will grow.
