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.
