You’re gone
And when I look up at the sky
You're wearing a rainbow like a tiara
It makes me smile
A small, sad smile
And you bring the clouds together
For one to hug another
Though one is pristine white and the other saddish grey
And you make a bird glide across
Like a fallen bow from your hair
Then make it fold its wings on the bench beside me
But when I look into its bewildered eyes
And reach out to touch it’s feathery wings
You make it fly away
And when I look back up at you
The rainbow is gone
And the sky is grey

When We Were Very Young
In another box set that my parents got me when I was younger contained four books by A.A. Milne. 'When We Were Very Young' is a collection of poems that Milne wrote for his son Christopher Robin. This is a book that is full of references to Mr. Edward Bear, but a lot of the poems give some various descriptions of life of a very young child and where, when, how and why they do what they do. The illustrations are quite cute for you can see what Christopher Robin is and may be thinking. Also, Pooh Bear does make his self-known at various points. I have read these verses many, many times over the years and each time make me feel good about myself.
