Dayshine - 2020
Light switched on our world
bringing both energy and vision,
igniting rich colors with great variation.
It flowed from the sun, that star that rose
each day to give with ever onward generosity.
I loved the dayshine.
I loved the brightness and the warmth
in the long summer days.
I loved the way it made the world shine so freshly
in the snow-bequeathed days of winter.
Yet, why are the things we need the most
the first we don’t honor,
or see how with our souls the gratitude remains?
For when you love the simple joys
the heart feels full and secure.
The hungry ghost within is satisfied
and allows serenity to enter.
