Happiness Is like a Sun

April 16, 2020

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is happiness.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A tenth anniversary poem comparing happiness to a sun: sometimes obscured by clouds, sometimes not, but always there:

Happiness is like a sun
Adrift amidst high clouds:
Pouring through like liquid gold;
Playing coy, shy peek-a-boo;
Yielding to despair.

The warmth and light are never done,
Enduring behind shrouds
Now draped across it, fold on fold,
Then unveiling cerulean blue
High up, where all is fair.
