a sunny day
give me a sunny day
and I’ll return with a few poems
spontaneous dancing, genius ideas
a few day dreams and four or five new freckles
give me a sunny day
and I’ll know it’s all going to be OK
I’ll put my seeds outside
and smile at those passing by,
also in need of a sunny day
writing poetry always feels productive
dancing reminds that purpose
and meaning is found
in breathing and moving
not always forward, but sometimes side to
chasing light, scheduled golden hour
meetings arranged with sunset.
give me a sunny day
and I’ll make sure my calendar is clear
so I may indeed be free
free in spirit,
free to dream
and melt slowly with the sun
like summertime ice cream
drops of sweetness making fingers sticky
give me a sunny day
so these clouds and rainy days
might make sense with springtime’s bloom
