There goes a clap of thunder but then the bright yellow sun comes out

It covered all the houses and chimneys all round

A smile is terrific
It feels like a blooming flower
It is a beautiful feeling
Its secret hiding place is in space
And when it’s gone it’s hard to find
But that smile is very kind
