Colourful umbrellas

Colourful umbrellas

It is a cold and rainy day,
The wind is blowing the leaves away.
Many people are walking on a path, the path of their life,
but suddenly, they stop, while seeing their family, to emphasize.

Many little groups of families have been formed and all together,
they create a big mass of unsupportable sadness as for forever.

The trees have realized how sad these humans are,
and try to comfort them by stretching their branches to the stars.
They swipe their leaves slowly in the rhythm of a lullaby,
to wipe away their tears and to calm the souls travelling through the sky.

A little girl is walking alone with a yellow umbrella through all these people,
but she doesn’t feel miserable.
She is looking at their sorrowful faces,
while realizing that some aren’t desperate and seem hopeful thanks to colourful umbrellas,
appearing in different places.

Then her gaze wanders off and she sees the other children who are seeing their beloved ones cry,
without knowing why.
They mimic their families and are looking at the ground,
but as wonders happen, they begin laughing and in the silence you can hear their sound.

The little girl persists walking, the rain whips in her eye,
she visualizes that she forgot how to cry.
While considering this, her thoughts go to her family,
and without noticing it, a warm tear starts running down her cheek due to all the lasting memories.
