"BLOOM"

I found it on my computer today. Totally forgot about it. I love it. It was written during a chilly autumn evening. The poem shows how easily the mood can be changed if the right people are around us.

“BLOOM”

 

The inside is dark and cold.

The old heater doesn’t work.

I’ve got nobody to hold,

And I’ve just broken a fork.

 

The outside is not better;

ALL because of the weather.

NOBODY hanging around,

Red leafs lying on the ground.

 

EVERYTHING gets on my nerves;

The techno party next door,

The dog scowling on the floor,

The lack of kisses and hugs,

Having too many blue mugs…

 

***************************************

 

Then somebody hits the lights,

Turning the inside into a paradise.

Pushing against the warm heart,

I shiver, but not because of the heater.

My silverware is now mend,

But I do not remember how it all went.

 

The outside doesn’t matter at all,

I realized the weather is because of the fall.

Mother Nature has her own cycle,

Making yellow, dead leafs easy to recycle.

 

My life is no longer gray,

Because I caught a glimpse of that bright and warm sun’s ray…

I like it! It starts out making you feel cold and gray, but then toward the end you feel up beat, warm and cozy!
