Grey Days

Thanks be for grey days,
for absence of cunning light—
who summoned the crow?

Why should I be thankful for grey days? I just want to go for a nice long walk without getting soaked…

Mother Nature has to our best friend ever. She shares so much beauty with all of us. I love some of the gray days. They are a relief in a way. Now when we have them one after the other and day after day, that is something else. Beautiful shot and a lovely poem. genie

It was that kind of day in So Cal, too, and the crows and ravens have been out in force.
