Dear Syracuse and your lack of anything other than cloudiness in freaking late March/early April,
I need it to be sunny
I need it to be sunny so I can greet the day with happiness instead of a groan
I need it to be sunny so I don't feel cold when I go outside
I need it to be sunny so I can finally wear open-toed shoes and put away my heavy coat
I need it to be sunny so I can know that it's spring instead of having to remind myself everyday
I need it to be sunny so I can get some Vitamin B, which is good for complexion and morale
I need it to be sunny so I don't have to look inside myself for joy
I need it to be sunny so I can finally feel hopeful about my future, even when that future is foggy
(This sentiment is seconded, and etc, by all of my friends who live here and cannot wait to get out of here)
(Don't criticize the poem, I am very well aware it's rudimentary and repetitive (I was a lit major, for God's sake!). But sometimes you need to let it out.)
(Now back to your regularly scheduled programming...and rain and snow in April).
