Good morning weather-vane, do I see a twinkle in your eye?
Is it a blazing sun at high noon in a cloudless clear blue sky?
Or do you point towards warm winds that bring rumbling clouds this way
Can you smell the rain they bring with them to dampen our today?
Give us glad tidings, and following seas
Put us in touch with a light breeze
Watch over us as we sail along
Point us to the end of the rainbow….
Good morning weather-vane, what do you forecast this week?
Cumulus or cumulonimbus, playing hide and seek
With the sun, as it travels over us across the sky
Golden rays often shadowed as clouds pass it by?
Give us a heads up on what the days will bring
Put us in touch with fair winds
Smile down upon us as we sail along
Point us to the end of the rainbow….
Good morning weather-vane, look at your crystal ball
Will the heavens split wide open, will the mercury start to fall?
Will lightning dance and flash to the beat of thunder’s drum?
Will rain pour down in icy sheets, cold winds make us numb?
Give us a warm smile, and a friendly wave
Put us in touch with sunshine
Lift the dawn sun from the horizon
Point us to the end of the rainbow….
Good morning weather-vane, tell me what you know
Secrets on the breeze come to you for sure
Did you know that calm would follow, filled with golden light
Though hail and thunder deafened the watches of last night?
Give us good cheer, and your fond blessing
Put us in touch with a warm front
Heed a sailor’s prayer and his song
Point to us the end of the rainbow….
