Moods Inspiring Clouds

Reflecting rays from a sunlit stream
 Passing strangers as in a dream
 Butterfly thoughts like a fingerprint
 Nature's thoughts carried on the wind
 As the clouds hunt the sky
 And the night begins to weep
 They never wonder why
 And lay their heads to sleep
 But all this time I tried to restrain
 Thought I had to fight to avoid the pain
 All I had to do was wait for things to pass
 Bend instead of fight like the wind curves the grass
 Dew-drops shine through fragile green
 Fragrant moss, sounds unseen
 Windswept dreams, sunlight warms
 Morning waits with open arms
 When the clouds leave the sky
 And the light returns again
 They never wonder why
 How the sun could chase the rain
 But all this time I tried to restrain
 Thought I had to fight to avoid the pain
 All I had to do was wait for things to pass
 Bend instead of fight like the wind curves the grass
 As the sun again lights up my day
 I know these feelings aren't here to stay
 The night will come again cold and dark
 Memories will pull me through like a joyful spark
