Notes About The Poem

12/21/2025 for New Start Poetry Contest sponsored by Miranda Hawley

Sunshine

Sunshine, friend of mine
Uncloudy day, sun's warming ray
Nature says it's time to play
Sandlots, smiles, and playground swings
Happy things that sunshine brings
Illuminate my shadowed soul
Nice time to take a wholesome stroll
Ever shining sun, my best friend, bar none.

Your "Sunshine" is a creative Acrostic write. I also enjoy writing in this style. Have a Very Blessed Christmas and New Year 2026 writing away.............
