Panacea for a Gloomy Day

Categories: Hope, Nature, Sky, Sun, Trees

Another grey, gloomy day
No sun. Lowering skies
Menacing clouds. Leaden
Threatening rain.

What to do on such a day?

Remember blue skies
Retreat to memories of sun-filled days
Childhood moments of warm pleasure.

Playing carefree on sunlit beaches
Running through sparkling waves
Skipping in wildflower meadows
Hiding and seeking round bushes
Climbing trees. Nonchalant swinging.

Wonderful recollections
Heart-warming reminiscing
I feel better already.
