Personification poem

I know that clouds arent people,

But theyre looking glum today So I say that they are sad

As I watch the sky turn gray.

Now, the sky is not a person, But I feel its raindrop tears.

So I say that it is crying,

And then the sun appears.

The sun is not a person,

But its warmth spreads like a grin.

So I say the sun is smiling,

And the sky cheers up again.
