Sitting In the Sun
Outside letting my legs feel the warmth of the sun.
Only my legs, the rest of me is on the porch, in shade.
Not enough.
I move my whole body to the sun.
And my chair.
The sun warms up my air conditioned self
Fast.
All encompassing, softly, in a loving way.
I feel hugged, complete, sun-kissed,
Sun-approved, my natural sun self.
The birds feel it too.
We are all joyful here.
The sun’s power is radiating into us
In happy gloriousness.
She wraps her loving arms around
us, dusting away all traces of
gloom.
Despair cannot survive
Here in the sun.
She does not allow it.
Sit in the sun for
An hour, and you will
Feel a feeling you can
Get nowhere else,
Except maybe in
Heaven.
