Shining Life Tanka.

Goldfinch60



I rose from my bed,

I looked out of my window,

The moon shone on me,

The new day of my good life

Did shine on me so brightly.

        Thats the positivity i love to read, the same positivity flows through me too in these troubled times though i wish i had such a moon to welcome my waking..... LOL my body clock is all over the place. Often i ignore normal hours and sleep well into the daylight... there's little harm in it whilst the pandemic is rife.

          ....And then it rained?!
          Well, no, not if the sky was clear.
          Good write Gold.

            Even if it rained you must remember that skin is waterproof.

              gloomy skies in London, all week
              but I reflect the sunshine
              your poetry, gifts me
              by choosing to smile
              and enjoy, my life...
              thank you, Andy
              dear Paragon of Positivity!
