Sunshiny Guilt

A sunshiny day makes you guilty
For staying inside your abode.
You glance out the window and wonder
If you’ve gone against some kind of code.

For who wouldn’t prefer to be outside
To soak up those wonderful rays
Especially since, in the springtime,
There’ll be so many rainy-type days?

That’s why I miss having a terrace
Or patio, porch or a yard
So I could sit out in the sunshine
And all of that guilt disregard.

The best of both worlds at my fingers,
Just steps between inside and out
Would make me a happier camper
And happier poems I would spout.
