The Sun is Gone

 By Robert W. Cluney


 The sun is gone, the sky is gray

As here in my bed I lay

Looking through my window, at the morning sky

Feeling blue, not knowing why

Then I see a bird on the wing

He perches on a branch to sing

In that moment I realize

Happiness is not the color of skies

That's not the way the day to start

Happiness is something you feel in your heart
