Clear Blue Sky

It was seven o'clock in the morning, and I closed my eyes and took a deep breath before looking up and opening them again. I saw the blue sky there, but there were clouds. I went back to what I was doing and never looked up again. Clouds can be frightening at times, as if they will come down to the ground and cover me and conquer the world. The next day, I did the same thing, same as yesterday, it was blue sky with a few clouds, how frustrating. Until I got used to getting up early and checking the sky to see if there were clouds or if it was clear. Every day brings a new story about the sky and clouds. The sky is sometimes a shade of orange with pink clouds, sometimes blue with gray clouds, and most of the time blue with scattered clouds. But I'm still hoping that when I wake up one morning, the sky will be clear blue with no crumbs of clouds. One morning, as usual, I awoke early, closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and gazed up at the sky. However, one of the rare instances was a clear blue sky. I'm uncertain of how I feel about it. It was beautiful, exactly what I wanted, but feels so empty. It's been four mornings with a clear blue sky. I miss the clouds.
