Rays of Sunshine

Everyone gets the blues Doctors, lawyers, poets too Here's the good news You can defeat the blues if you so choose When poets get the blues Their poems become filled with gloom And grey skies always loom While rays of sunshine are few Writing a funny limerick may be the cure A butterfly poem can help for sure Rainbow verses can be a pot of gold Blue skies and flowers to behold Laughter is the best cure of all Read a good joke and have a ball Take your poem for an enchanting ride Your pot of gold is on the other side Now take some sunshine and rub on your face Let your smile brighten up the place For Becca's Chasing the Blues contest 1-31-2013
