Sunshine and Rainbows

Childhood days of long ago, were sunny. I seldom had a reason for a tear. If sadness should come unexpectedly, Strong, loving arms of comfort would be near. Welcomed after a quartet of loved sons, I was my parent’s long awaited girl. They and my four brothers doted on me. Life was the fabled oyster, I the pearl. Sheltered as I was from life’s disasters, When even my young brothers did their part To show me the beauty all around me, I could not help but grow a happy heart. Though sadness has accosted me at times, My happy heart has softened it with rhymes. Written: May 23,2012 Theme (2) “Happy Heart”
