The Key
August 31, 2014
I look to the sky and see 42 shades of grey
The rain falls down in puddles of tattered dismay
I close my eyes and smile, "O what a beautiful day"
Your curious face tells me that you disagree
Well some enjoy the sun while others take refuge at sea
Finding a way to enjoy a bit of it all is the key
Now that you've heard I do hope that you will understand
Your perspective is all and control is the only command
Though the sea may be great, haven may be sought on land
