Sunlight

Such sunlight shining down on me. . . . No clouds above, like dungaree, hung dully, shielding everyone from beaming grins of Mr. Sun, who graces us with bonhomie! Some folks might seek a shady tree or others go inside to be less hot, but I’m not one to shun such sunlight. Although there is no guarantee that gloom will not eventually descend to spoil my friend Sun’s fun, before his brilliant show is done, I'll stay here in my revelry. Such sunlight!

Congratulations on your win, Andrea! This is a great sunny piece. So it's no wonder at all you've placed so high. I truly appreciate your comment on my tanka. I mostly write free verse and an occasional rhyme. That's the first time I've ever written a tanka, I didn't know what it was prior to the contest. Have a fun sunny day now!

Sunlight sure gets me in a better mood. It has been so dreary and guess what we got snow last night. Just enough to cover the ground. Such a late spring. So enjoyed the warmth of this poem. love phyl
