Above Grey Skies

Above grey skies The sun shines. I dream of far off shores Where flights of fancy set you free. I imagine a tropical paradise and ice cream. I believe in manifesting this day dream. The wonders of new vistas Horizons of joy Hope And the success Of a life worth living. Yet Dark clouds loom Pressing down So much It's like I may drown. I have to rise above the grey skies Where the sun shines. And see tomorrow. Breathe in the air Open myself wide And then soar Like a bird One that can glide On uplifting swurls Of solitude Where the satisfaction can hide. Yet solitude Can only be for a moment. For lonliness Is not what anyone wants. So above the grey skies Lets see the sunrise Together And beam at the wonder of it all. Above the grey skies The sun will always shine. Come fly with me For this is the reality And not just a dream. Tangled thoughts Need to be combed through. The stresses of tresses Knotted with a confusion Will whip in the wind with freedom When you are above grey skies Where the sun shines. Imagine a silky smooth gleam in the breeze as the wind blows with favour and hope. Imagine that ice cream in the tropical paradise. For that is truly the definition of heaven. So when it is gloomy And dark When it's oppressive and the sky feels low Remember Above grey skies The sun always- Always shines. And is there to be found - For that is hope. ©Jason Disley (May 2024)
