THE PERFECT DAY

 


The waves were splashing and singing

I felt the joy that they were bringing

I smiled at the sky, then closed my eyes

And then I heard the ocean’s cries

It was angry; it was upset

This sudden rage made me forget

The joy it was bringing me before

Now the winds joined it along the shore

The winds blew my heart away

And hid it somewhere along the way

I ran back home looking for joy

Because my perfect day had been destroyed
