In the Sunshine of Our Life

She’s out there in the cold And I alone in her warm house The moose is on the branch She the owl, white as rice I write of nature, because it is her nature that she play soccer In 40 degree weather 8pm on a weeknight While I type in her living room Reforming myself Seeing the monkeys on the branch Realizing the leaf may not block us forever For the sun appears as everything blows In The Sunshine Of Our Life

Hi Matt :) Very interesting way of depicting someone you love ( I think if you entered this in your own contest it would do so well, ^_~) I really like your last line in could mean so much & I would have to agree with you, sunlight definitely permeates and what a comfort that it does, thank you as well so much for my 2nd placement in your beautiful contest-- I am so happy you deemed it worthy for that-thank you :) I enjoyed writing that and now you got my mind whirring for your contest -nikko :)
