Bright Sunny Rays, Sent This Soul Into Glee

Bright Sunny Rays, Sent This Soul Into Glee I woke that clear morn in dew laden grass, Still dreaming, of night's paradise before. Our Love had flown away, from its impasse, I was broken deeply within my core. Yet new dawn and hope grabbed me by the hand Cried out, do not let her just slip away You're worthless, unless you now take a stand Seek her, else bear pain til your dying day Bright sunny rays, sent this soul into glee I am hers, and she is meant for me Off to her distant place my new-heart raced Soon would be joy, sweet dreams there born anew Let die, angry words that had her disgraced For Love, she must give mercy that was due Love, can not falter if its heart is right She saw me coming, raced forth with a grin Her dancing glow, such a heavenly sight Saying again, our Love vows til the end Bright sunny rays, sent this soul into glee I am hers, and she is meant for me Robert J.

And they lived happily ever after, yes? You took me from heartache to joy and both were clearly, meaningfully felt. I enjoyed this very much. Hope all is golden in your world, Robert. All the best and poetry hugs ... CayCay
