Poem 125: A Great Day For UP!

"It is a great day for UP,"  said Dr. Suess circulating hourly in my head.

As the rain poured on my head, in sorrow like a puddle of quicksand engulfing me in the sludge of life,
The rain threw me a beckon of light, reminding my eyes to gaze UP.

Looking there, truth 's rainbow anointed the sky with hope and I was enlightened that there are times when only the rain can cause the haze to lift, and make my eyes truly focus UP.

Up hands
Up feet
Up eyes
Up mind
UP, UP, UP, 
Yes, TODAY is a great day for UP!
