Sunny Days

I was made for sunny days
for laughter and for rain
for salt-spray kisses on the beach
for fresh-mown grass
for daisy chains

I was made for sun-warmed skin
for ozone in my breath
for cotton clouds
for star filled nights
for river mist
for blue-green seas

I was made for love
for life
for hope
for dreams
for birth
for death

and for every moment
in between

It was a beautiful sunny day, which I love and wanted to celebrate, but I have to accept that you can’t have peaks without troughs.
