Sunshine and Blue Sky

by Wendy G

Acrostic Poem Contest Winner 

Sunshine's warm and golden soothing arms
Under cloudless skies are healing charms.
Nestling and comforted, one feels glad ….
Sad thoughts lessen, and life's not as bad.
Hope returns, strength and energy too,
Instead of despair, sun helps us through ….
Negative thoughts are told to depart -
Each blessing of sunshine gives a new start.
 
Add to this sun a sky brilliant blue …
Never can doubt its effect on you …
Delivers its promise of blessing too.
 
Better than doctors, tablets and pills,
Life with these colours will cure many ills.
Unless your choice is to moan in despair,
Enjoy the sun and the sky that we share.
 
Senses are nourished, and moods have shifted ...
Kisses from nature, these blessings are gifted ...
Yes, with sun and blue sky our hearts are uplifted!
