A Beautiful Day

The rain seemed to never end
Viewless windows covered in wet
The sound went beyond soothing
Beyond monotony
And into that place where it becomes unheard

And the cold seeped under the doors
Through layers of warmth
And into the very bones of my being
The chill made me shiver
And silently giggle with delight

My face may have appeared somber
As I reviewed the week that was,
Sitting near the window
And tracing raindrop tracks
With one cold finger

I was tired, the weariness clear
In my half-lidded eyes
As tears prickled, but never fell
And my heart found strength
In the overness of it all

Yet in the midst of reverie,
Although no rainbow could be seen
There was hope
And a winner's quiet smile
And it was a beautiful day.
