My name is Sadness.
I might visit when it’s gloomy or gray.
But you also might see me on a beautiful day.
I’m here sometimes, but I don’t stay.
Just give me a chance, and listen when I say:
Everyone cries! And that’s okay.
A comforting story about accepting
feelings and letting them go.
For children ages 5 years and up.
