Happy Days

Waterfalls flood my spirit and rouse my amber eyes awake as I cry. Butterflies weave a grin on my mouth as I count these blessings passing by! The pure azure sky crowns me with acceptance while the sun hues me in luminosity. Daffodils caress me with penance just as the lime grass wraps me in a ditty! This heart of mine wants to beat out of my chest so it can grant its love. Even through all of this silly doubt, I was born to fly freely like a dove! Shoot my wings, but despite you put me through, life will continue to find its ways. Right now, this is my beautiful time to finally, live my journey with happy days! (Written on July 1st, 2017 for Nayda Ivette Negron's Happy Days Contest) P.S. This poem won 8th place in the contest, thanks, Nayda!
