A Ray of Sunshine
A single ray of sunshine
coming through the trees.
It paints a pretty picture
on red and yellow leaves.
It lifts the body and the soul,
peaceful pleasure for a day.
I hold it very close to me,
never let it get away.
Cherished moments stored inside,
a rendering of Fall.
Safe within my heart's confines,
behind the inner wall.
A moment frozen in my mind
but my heart will bear the mark.
A ray of sun that warms me whole
when afraid and in the dark.
I'll draw upon it's strength one day,
a cue from the Devine
and let its warmth envelope me;
my ray of bright sunshine.
