Silver lining

I was driving my friend home from work tonight and I noticed something that I have never paid much attention to before. I looked up while I was stopped at a stop light and saw something very interesting: the silver lining of the clouds. It was so beautiful and majestic I sorta spaced out as I looked at it. It was almost like it was trying to tell me something. I think I know what it was trying to say:

Sky of blue in sun's bright light
Sea of green in seaweed's sight
Mountains tall in hill's respite
Rivers flow with pure delight

Moonlight shining brightly
Stars begin to shimmer
Look closely and you just might find
A not so familiar glimmer

Silver lining of the clouds
Giving hope to us on the ground
Silver lining of the clouds
Wish they would make a sound

Grass be green and sometimes yellow
As the tides of the ocean mellow
Hills of sand swirl and bellow
Neath the winds strong currents, fellow

Still moonlight glistens majestically
Over rooftops and across the sea
True beauty lies where few have been
Among the clouds that surround us, we

Silver lining of the clouds
Giving hope to us on the ground
Silver lining of the clouds
Wish they would make a sound

Though some may find the clouds
bring nothing more than rain
Others find the power
To conquer hurt and pain

Silver lining of the clouds
Giving hope to us on the ground
Silver lining of the clouds
Wish they would make a sound
