Torrential rainfall
fell upon city after city.
Sky was grey like those suffering
in separation, fear, and greed.

No bird of happiness
flew in tornado winds.
No umbrellas safe haven
would stay open.

UNTIL people
released negative thoughts.
to balance inside compassion.

All got quiet,
and miracle appeared.

An upside rainbow that smiled to the world.

Now we’re dancing
awake and alert.
on road to better days.
