Everyday.

by Poet on the Piano   Jun 24, 2013


It's not everyday you get to see, out of the corner of your eyes,
a full arch rainbow with all of its colors warming the iciness
inside you.

Gone are the insecurities, the way you talk to a mirror
bitterly saying "just stop following me around".

See when you give yourself the chance to walk outside
barefoot on a day where the sun stays nostalgic,
your soul is written all over the sky,
and this time
in ink we take for granted.

It's not everyday one moment can change your whole night,
and just maybe, it can change your outlook on
your own life.

    Warming the iciness inside you
    ^Loved this, rainbows do have that affect for sure! They are so beautiful that they make you smile and have such a rare warmth.

    Ah how powerful is this! The ending really is beautiful, just the little things throughout the day could make our entire day and make us appreciate all the little things that we see everyday :) It can make you so much more positive about the life you live & provide us with a much different outlook on things. Who knew such a little thought could stem from seeing a gorgeous rainbow, lovely! :)

    Oh wow MA, I love rainbows, they just look so pretty, and do make you feel different, a kind of childish, nostalgic feeling. It's like when you're small and drawing rainbows in every scene, without the rain.

    Going outside can make you see things in a different way, and I do think some things can change our perception on life, and in the moment it can change our mood.

    The world is full of natural beauty, we need to embrace it instead of trying to perfect what cannot be perfected,to see our beauty as it is, for we wouldn't change a sky with a rainbow, for that's the perfect sight of life. Hope between the rainfall and sunshine.

    Beautiful and inspiring write, that I really loved.

    Xx
