Yellow rain

Rainy days shouldn't be dark. They should be yellow...

Yellow rain

Eyes closed.

these sounds.  

your mother shushing you calmly to sleep.

tiny pebbles slowly  hitting the ground.

this is the song of the rain.

“wake up, sunshine. Come, paint colour onto my grey skies”.

Eyes open.

through the window, the sky is crying.

“why are you sad, gloomy sky?”

“these are not tears of sorrow, but tears of new opportunities, my darling. make even the cloudy day a piece of art”

Yellow.

yellow rain boots and banana pancakes.

splish, splash.

twirling, hands up, tongue to the sky.

This day is a masterpiece.

-S.M

"-does the way it's written make sense?"
It's poetry, it isn't supposed to make sense, it is supposed to make emotion.
It makes sense.

[Sarah's words]
