Synonyms of me

Find me where laughter rings the loudest
Where hope has a face and it’s constantly spring
The cock will crow ten times before I decide on anything
I might still forget to choose
Decisions are pebbles that harden into rocks

I am a bee that thrives in silence
Darker shades wear me
Like the melanin on my skin
The jokes I crave wear an even darker shade
To crack any is to swallow a nut

I drift in the wind, dance in the rain, and crave sunshine
One sided smirk when I find the words to play with
I have a list of how to make a list of everything
I am the mystery of the morning
Satin, silk, cotton and everything smooth.
