i don't like rainy days.
well, i do.
but it's weird
the tulip's petals
curve more inward
hiding the bloom i love
the droplets fall on the leaves and stem
and i watch them race down to the dirt
once the sun shows its face,
i can only watch.
the petals flourish slowly
the raindrops dry away
and the wind blows
it's crazy how something small,
like the weather,
can change the flowers
completely.
