Sadness is Water, Gabby Weltman

Sadness is Water

Sadness is water, Cold and fresh from a slow foggy river. Although it seems almost unimportant, It is needed to turn just a seed in the ground to a pink-red strawberry. But just because we need it, No one wants a flood. And those who learn to swim are the lucky ones, That will make it onto dry lands.
