My condo at fifteen stories high…
Today seems to hug the sky.

Heavy rain clouds hang low
Fewer people seem on the go.

I have no need to leave the door
And will enjoy the view from the 15th floor.

The green palm tree leaves wildly sway
Almost touching the clouds that are dark grey

The beach looks serene…
Only birds can be seen.

The waves crash on the sand
Of the Long Beach strand.

The wind howls on my balcony…
My view in the distance I can not see.

A perfect afternoon for cookies and hot tea
While watching TV.

And for a day I enjoy this bad weather…
They say… tomorrow again it will be better

Because another sunny ray
Is already on its way!
