Yesterday

Was it yesterday that I was young and carefree?
Was it yesterday that birds soared high above trees...?
Was it yesterday
                         that rainbows were a mass of colours...
Was it yesterday
                         that blessings were contained with each raindrops?
Why is it today
                         life is so dreary...?
Is it too late now, I wonder...

                         to recapture yesterday's rhapsody...?
