Melodramatic Me

$\"\"$

Today I gaze upon the morning sky,

Remembering those we loved, who are no longer by our sides.

Can they see the beauty of the Earth below?

I wonder.

$\"\"$
From the clouds above, can they see the passing seasons?

$\"\"$

Do they hear our complaints and all our reasons

We wish for warmer days,

$\"\"$

Hours without insects,

$\"\"$

Winds to dry up the mud,

$\"\"$

And a break from the sun’s rays.

$\"\"$

I wonder.

$\"\"$

Do they smile when of life’s hardships we grumble,

Like us, do they cower when we hear the thunder rumble,

$\"\"$

Can they feel the splendor a new season brings us?

$\"\"$

I hope so.

$\"\"$

Maybe it’s my melodramatic self

To remember our loved ones today. But I vow never to forget.

$\"\"$

And the beauty of today\’s world, I won\’t ignore.

$\"\"$

Yet, I’m still so excited to see the new life Spring has in store!
