Sun Kiss - Welcome the Day

Sun Kiss - Welcome the Day
                   by Amy Swanson



Kissed so softly by the sun

          warmth on my face

                    wind in my hair

                              enjoying this place


          of quiet contentment
  
          at peace with life

          letting my problems

                   go .... 

                         ... flow... 

 
out into this

sunfilled
sunshine
sunglow
sunkissed

                        afternoon

                        without a care.


Breeze blows gently
       
            I close my eyes ...


                          soul drifts along


                          entwined with nature

                          precious moment

                          peaceful solitude

                                               ~d
                                                    r
                                                      i

kiss of sun

       hot on my eyelids -

                                                   my heart open


                                                   I welcome the day.

This cheered me up on another dark day in Glasgow. Hope there's some sun soon after six months of freezing weather. Love the way you present your poems. Very inventive. Thanks also for your kind comments. It was a big help to have so many people here rally round.
