A beautiful day

 
and you wonder how your mood could be black
under a blue sky, amongst the golden grasses, the
foothills magnificent in the distance.
The sun is warm on your skin and the silence
embraces you, it is so precious when it arrives
unexpectedly on a day like today when everyone
would seem to be outside, calling to one another,
their dogs, the roar of cars and trucks in the distance. 
late this afternoon, the blue has been replaced
by grey and snow will fall in delicate shimmering
flakes under moonlight, how can a mood be
black in this, so silly and unproductive,
so altogether human.
