Blue skies


Yesterday the sky was blue; 
Today it’s awash with clouds and gray, 
Which is not to say that makes the world
 Less beautiful, though possibly 
 Less distracting — either way,
 There’s still work to be done:
 A lawn to mow, a garden to weed, 
A poem to write, a protest to be made. 
Gray skies make it easier to do; 
A blue sky makes me long to stop and be.
