My old, crony clouds,
gray with strain, hang around--
but sometimes, somehow, I can rise
above them, where the sun still shines--
and things are actually just fine.
Up here, I can catch my breath--
until the next time I forget
and fall back down
among my clouds.

I love this poem, and I gotta say I'm impressed by your handwriting in the dark! I really like your drawing, too--it fits so well. 😁✨
