"Sunshine Prayer." -Amber N. Leyba
September 20, 2010
Once upon a sunshine prayer, I slip through a leaf and a tree.
Happiness springs like a child's golden hair, and joy comes like pollen to a bee.
But sometimes the rain will pour down like a flood, your sunshine seems so far away.
"Where did the light go and all sunny bliss? Where is the laughter of the day?"
To slip in a fump and dark stormy night is never the answer so it seems;
When all you have left are a tear and an ache and nothing holds on to your dreams.
Don't cry little sorrow, don't blow out the light; Someone is sure to be there.
"Where is He then when all I can do, is scream and pull out my hair?"
Surely real soon your sun will then shine, a rainbow will pluck at your cheeks;
And then you can shout "Sunshine prayer you're here! HE sent you with sugar and sweets!"
