Who

who will
take
away the sun,
leaving
the clouds
to cry?

who will
take away
the sweet 
songs
from the birds,
causing silence
to fall
from the trees?

who will
take my joy
away
if you leave,
locking away
my happiness?

we need the sun
to shine,
we need the birds
to sing,
and i need
you here
so i can
smile.

Thanks for sharing this. Welcome to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. God bless you.
