The Rain

Rain drops a plenty

Glass is half-full

Greener pastures

Flowers bloom

Empty rivers now overflow

Everything’s brighter

Some go outside

Dancing singing splashing in puddles

Rain drops are pouring

The sun is hiding

Dark cloud gloom

Sky is falling

Heaven is crying

It’s all so gray

Some stay indoors

Where tears flow

Same rain evokes

Different emotions

The way you feel

Outlook, perception

To laugh or cry

Be happy or sad

Is it up to us

Is it a choice for us?

The key is self-awareness

Authenticity to one’s self

It’s okay to be happy, it’s ok to be sad

Let’s just be ourselves

Don’t let one emotion define us

Remember, there is no rain without clouds

No sunrise without a night
