Like a Warm Cozy Sweater

The sun is shining, not a cloud up above How could life be any better Good health and the love of a very sweet lady Life is like a warm cozy sweater The rain can't even dampen my spirits I'm meant to live life on a high I see nothing but positive signs every day Of love and bright sunny skies This can't be true, I've heard people say One can't always be upbeat every day Once in a while, there's gotta be sad things You encounter along the way Of course they're right, but the difference is I don't let these things get me down They are all a part of this thing we call living It's my choice to smile, not frown The sun is shining, not a cloud up above How could life be any better Good health and the love of a very sweet lady Life is like a warm cozy sweater © Jack Ellison 2015

The sun is shining with not a cloud in the sky? You're not bragging to some one in a monsoon season are you? We really do need to see the sun. And we're not supposed to have a monsoon season! Honest! You need to get your feet wet, so you can splash around with us. We're doing the musical(in the park),'Singing in The Rain'. Bet you didn't see that one coming? LOL... Our raccoon came back last night and slept in our tree again. He tried to eat bird seed, but the birds didn't leave any. Poor baby!
