Silver Skies

This morning started with silver skies and snow squalls. The color challenge word is
silver

Looking down the driveway, the trees also looked silver. Glad to have the evergreens (white pine and hemlock) to spice things up a bit. The Silver Lining was that the cold front blew in and brought Blue skies later.

Silver Lining

They say every cloud
has a silver lining
and every true friend
a heart of gold.

In some moments
of distress,
we do not often see
what is there before our eyes.

Our judgement is clouded
and our worries conceal
what others try to give us
in hope and unconditional love.

The silver lining in our friends
is not always visible
and sometimes we are too blind
to see it there.
