The Beginning of my Life
It was my first Birthday, a very special day,
It was raining, and the rainbow made me feel like I wore a crown.
There was plenty to like about this day,
Like this pitter-patter sound of the rain,
That took away all my pain.
The smell of the Earth, and the cooling breeze,
I thanked the rain God cause the Earth is his.
My mother baked me a birthday cake,
And a frosty yummy mango shake.
I watched the rain pouring down,
In my new red birthday gown.

I became a year old, my mom told, “My kid grew up.”

And, also gifted me fluffy teddy-bears,
She knew what I wanted, planted a soft kiss and down came my
happy tears.
I was so happy that I hugged her tight,
And saw her smile so bright.
The windy weather tells me not to bother
What I like the most when it rains are my seven colored rainbow
friends.
My best friend wished me and told,
“Your eyes are beautiful and brown.”
The full rainbow made me feel like I wore a crown.
Though the scenes from the window were hazy,
These memories would be clear and never fade.
It was these surprises that I will always remember,
Not like raindrops falling but like umbrellas being held up tight.
