Gray Be Gone Today

Gray be gone today That I've no time for your distraction. I know you wait to steal my summer sun Don't you have somewhere else to be... Must you overstay your welcome... Lingering far too long. I have plans, yet finished... Things you cannot help me with, I've little desire to hear your dragging feet behind me... Gray be gone today Stuff your storm clouds into luggage and leave... Quit wrapping your damp hands around my hunched and hurting body So that I may stand stronger today. I battle your every entry, Like a soldier, standing guard... That you might try, again, to breach the fortress walls of my well being. Gray be gone today.... I've sent for back up... The calvary of light hearted daydreams, Streets of sonnets and safe passage An arsenal of attitude and appreciation For what could turn into a day of delight, Should you flag a taxi, and turn right, on red... Gray be gone today... In my box of crayons, you need reside I can use the black, for necessary rest... And the white, refreshes and purifies... But Gray...oh Gray, you have bedded down here Far far too long... And I have much ahead... You slow my every second to a standstill, And threaten my successful journey. No one invited you in... Gray be gone today
