Fiery Sunshine
bubbling out of the blankets through softly lit rays
sunseeker sparks at the morning view
she slips quietly over to sleeping mom
her love letter arriving with encircling arms
scampering down the stairs with purring fur
she greets the day barefoot; laughing now
secret fairy house glints hello from beneath the white sprinkled leaves
icicles hang wistfully; unhampered evidence of the changing
canvas moving forward in time
vibrant with joy; wild and free,
her unfiltered selfie shines
back from the warm spot on the pond
heart and glow stretching to the blue and beyond
