Analysis of It looks like rain

Early today, bright this morning
just after i awoke

Washed my face, brushed my teeth
Sung to the amusement of the mirror

A song about a sweet relationship
 i once had

As i shave away
yesterday’s growth,

while my hurt Feelings
sent me reeling,

in all
which it evoked

Stepped outside
to catch a smoke

Observed
a glorious sunrise unfolding,

A new opportunity
with something new,

Arriving over the horizon.
i felt ready for a new start,

come what may

Although, i had a funny feeling
This was not just going to be

Just another ordinary day

Gazing to the skies,
thin wispy clouds

Concentrations
of frozen condensation

Gathering in ever increasing
mass of random collections

of majestic floating
islands on parade

Building bolder, thicker, stronger
every moment  

As darkening shadows
faded from white to gray

Gather deeper
as the skies become enraged

Distant lightning
flashes its dire warning

With thunder
chasing clouds further ahead

A strong wind falls
suddenly upon us

Scattering leaves,
every which way...

Smell a cool,
dampness in the air

Birds flying low,
seeking shelter

Sleeping street lights,
stagger back to life

Umbrellas
suddenly appear.

Seems like, Another
good day

to make the juke box Fill the air
with music of yesterdays

To fill the void with memories

Step away from this reality  
Enjoy a beer or three

With a friend
i haven’t met

It looks like
rain
