It's cloudy today
No sun to be seen
The humid air lays heavy
Pressing, closing in to sufficate
The trees are still
No breeze to be felt
The dry ground looks lifeless
I should be saying 'thanks'
The sun isn't pounding down today
Killing everything in its wake
But this never ending heat
It just won't go away
Whether cloudy or sunny
It takes your breath away
But that is Texas
What do I expect

Ohh..to be on my mountain today
Feel the air cooling
Going from summer to fall
See the pines changing
Needles falling
Gentle breezes swaying the 
surrounding giants
The bears foraging
Preparing for the snows
Squirrels scamping around
Gathering their acorns
Quiet, Peaceful
And the air...
Light
Easy to breath
Not suffocating

Ohh..to be sitting with my Grandmother
In front of the fireplace
Sipping cocoa
Watching the changes going on outside
Seeing the winter coming on
that makes the summer bareable
You can hear the woods whispering
all aound you
It's seasons changing
Mother nature at work
