Sunshine

Have you ever experienced one of those moments when you felt as if sunshine was pouring into your heart?  Happiness then overflowing to all of your senses, your day continued in a glorious haze of light and joy.

Yesterday was such a day for me.  

Everything I did, mundane or otherwise, caused giggles in my soul.  The joy I was experiencing rubbed off on each person with whom I communicated.  One of my friends even suggested that God was spoiling me.  I happily agreed and accepted that I have been truly blessed.

Such exquisite days help me have hope.  Such golden days keep me going when times can be a bit difficult or when pain undermines the sublime that would fill my heart.  

My computer screen transported me somewhere over the rainbow yesterday and I am filled with color and love and amazement and gratitude.

May tomorrow be such a day for you.

Dreamer

What do you dream, my little dear?  

Will my Mommy always be near?

  And will my Daddy shelter me?

Will big sister always see

How much I trust her to be

Loving and giving and caring of me?

Will the world be kind to us

As a brave new family we will be?

Will joy accompany all we do?

And harmony be the song we sing

As living together love we bring?

Will days be warm and filled with sun?

Will bumps be soft and rain be light?

Will hurts be few and learning bright?

Will fireflies play in the evening grass

As butterfly kisses whisper from me?

Will happiness fall over me

While tickles and bubbles cover me?

Will surprises be fun and rainbows near?

Will blankets snuggle away any pain

And will Grandma's cheek be soft for me?

Will angels all around me fly

While God in heaven smiles wide?

Will marvels and miracles fill my days

As I live and learn and love

And giggle and kiss and coo?

What do you dream, my little dear?
