You Are My Sunshine [poetry]

🍃

the ground is covered in white
and the sky is pale gray.
scarves and fur coats aren't enough to keep me warm.

the air is so frigid
that it reddens my skin
and it feels like my blood has turned to snow.

when i feel the blizzard pause
and the sun leaves warmth on my hands,
i look to the sky and i'm shocked
to see a loud shade of blue
dotted by fluffy white clouds.

the grass is now green and splotched by flowers.
i look for the source of the sudden light
and again, i'm surprised at what is in front of me.

i see a beautiful mistress with bright eyes and a soft smile
and roses crowning her head
and a robe of white lace dangling loose from her body

this beauty tells me,
"i'm yours and you're mine"
and i realize who she must be.

she's the lady of the sun,
the lady of the sky,
and the lady of my
warmth.
