Life's Little Reminders

The sun, it looks deceiving from inside this warm house. For when I took a step outside, the wind lifted up my blouse. “Well, that was rather rude,” I thought as I turned back toward the door. I let the sunshine warm my back, then the wind came back for more. It touched my hair, and chilled my toes, leaves floated all around. I looked to the sun and said, “My friend, come closer to the ground. I need your warmth, you seem so weak. Is everything alright?” The sun’s warm rays kissed my skin, and then he sadly replied, “The season, it’s a-changin’, the cold wind’s blowin’ in. Now you know I’m not as I appear when you look through your window again.” As I heard his explanation, I felt he was telling me something more… Reminding me things aren’t always what they seem, and behind me, I closed the door.
