Sunshine

You walk upon that desolate course
Ever aware of the brooding clouds above
Yet unable to see the great vistas which await
Is this life, ever threatened by storms?
Take a moment, look around with open eyes
For in the distance is a line of shimmering gold
Somewhere dawn breaks with glorious warmth
So plot your course thither
You have but to walk into the sunshine.

Beautiful work..It is breath taking work..We all sometimes get caught up in the problems and worries of this life but just looking around at what we have to be thankful for works miracles..The film "Fried Green Tomatoes" is a good movie but does not compare to being able to go to an opera, ballet, or hear a symphony play...I would like to read the book from which "Fried Green Tomatoes" was based..Your presence at my work lifted my spirits..Sara
