A Sunny Day

If everyday was a sunny day,
 then what would a sunny day be?

The answer...

it would be like everyday,

I say this to say. Despite all your past ways,
we have all had obstacle in our pathways
and I choose to believe that life isn't just black and white
 there are many shades of gray.

In the past you've been through it all,
stumbles and pitfalls,
 even going on journeys blind through fields where the grass is to tall,
You still seem to make it through it all.

 And that shows character. I'm not talking Spongbob or Patrick,
they say big things come in small packages
 and in you,
 with qualities so fine it obvious that it all depend on how u package it.

 Pressure busts pipes, but it can also make a diamond,
and in order for it to do so you have to put time in.
 Time and patients,
 and if a “broken heart” was a medical condition the emergency room would be
full of patients.

 Lord knows you have seen your fair share of scares,
 and the craziest part is it hurt you the most because you care.

When I stare right into your deep ocean, 
after all the crashed waves and commotion, 
I see your devotion.
 
Your willingness to face the weather head on like a beanie.

You overcome the storms,
 You control the rain with your pain,
Your smile tames the wild.
Your love melt the snow,
 and you light up the world with your glow.

See you are a sunny day,
 and it because of your bad weather that allow me
to appreciate your powers, 
the nourishment from your sun shine

 to my flowers.
