I Longed For a Sky Today

I longed for a sky today, bright and pleasant, sparkling after a rainy day I longed for daybreak with a gusty wind, with a lot to follow today. I touched the drops of rain that keep on pouring in my dream Those droplets reached the dry soil, and I sensed their tremendous whim. I longed for a rose-scented envelope, with a letter inside that has a lot to say Telling me of more rain to come, wiping all those tears of a fearful sky in dismay. I folded the sky, to calm her down, before getting too loud or noisy Listen, pretty sky! Listen to me! You need to see a lot, my little daisy! I imagine now; little footsteps will knock at the doorway soon Happy and tired faces with a long story of a day, with a blessing and boon. I could tell you a thousand of those dreams, with a thousand to come With new rain of hope and aspiration that startles, but stays for none.
