'sunlight'

her outstretched fingers peek over Table Mountain new day on the horizon something we embrace heat envelop everything she’s spreading sunshine today melodies so sweet harmony is on the cards as birds herald her presence children’s laughter heard sunlight in all her splendor one and all join in the fun

Wow! What a great use of personification for the sun, Wilma! The image of her fingers (rays) peering over Table Mountain is magical. Such a joyful poem with the harmonious melodies of birds and the laughter of children welcoming the sun. Awesome entry for the contest, dear. Wishing you success! Love, Carolyn
