Unchanging weather

Marc Chagall

I am the ever-changing weather
Raining when sorrow overwhelms me,
When darkness takes over the blue sky,
When my storm clouds erase light
That’s when sadness overtakes me and
Anger flashes in lightning strikes
Illuminating the waving green hills
Flashing towards helpless cities
Trees igniting
Buildings blazing
But I embrace it and let it pass over me…and

I shine like the sun on cold spring days
Dazzling and sparkling ……
Lighting up the ebony sky

And I am moved to
paint the dark sky with a flashing aurora,
bright colors that pierce the darkness
All painful memories removed
when I see your smile

I am how I am…like the unchanging weather
