Spring Kyrielle Poem

by pookietoo

Listen to the pretty birds sing.

It is such a beautiful thing.

See the wispy clouds way up high,

The lovely rainbows in the sky.

Listen to the sound of the rain

That's falling on the window pane.

See all the lightning way up high,

The lovely rainbows in the sky.

Take some time to smell a flower.

See all the beauties in each hour.

Notice the sunsets way up high,

The lovely rainbows in the sky.

Some days I sing, some days I cry.
My soul's the one determines why.
Sometimes it laughs, sometime it mourns.

My happiness wrapped in a shroud.
The day begins, to me it scorns.

With the sad setting of the sun.
From all my sorrows mycheart mourns.
On my bouquet are many thorns.
