Tears rolled down my cheek
Moistened the Earth beneath me
I sunk to my knees
Gazed upward at the sea of turbulent skies
I closed my eyes and felt the downpour of twilight
Guess we have that in common tonight
Mother Nature must also want to cry
But she tells me that this will not last
As I open my palms
My hands begin to dry
April showers can empower
For when the storm does pass
The land will glisten
The flowers will thrive
And so will I
Anyone heard of "escapril?" It's "escaping into poetry every day in April," (on instagram) in other words, a 30 day challenge where you write a poem and follow prompts each day. Here's one of them :)
