~*~
The sun is up!
And so am I!
My glasses rosy,
Pie in the sky.
I'll fret not
For life's too short,
No frowns here,
High fives I court.
I only see
Sun shining bright,
No more gloom,
I'm back in light.
I had my down,
But now I'm up,
I see the full
Of half-filled cup.
I worry not
What morrow brings,
I'm like the bluebird
That sweetly sings.
I want to be
Flying high,
Into blue
Cerulean sky.
I am happy,
No longer sad.
No more anger,
No feeling mad.
I'm the captain
Of my own ship,
Full steam ahead,
Let 'er rip!
I'm gonna sing,
Not gonna cry.
Not flying low,
I'm flying high!
I've got a new
Attitude,
Full of hope
And gratitude!

Well, goodmorning, our angel of light!  
I loved this part especially of your happy poem, Linda....

Sun shining bright,
No more gloom,
I'm back in light.
I had my down,
But now I'm up,
I see the full
Of half-filled cup.


Bye for now

Hooray!

No sun here, just a Spring rain but I'll enjoy 'your' sunshine today.
I'm so glad you're feeling more like your cheery self.

And so am I!

I'll fret not
For life's too short,

I know I've said this a dozen times, but really Linda, your thoughts are so refreshing!  Like the warmest breeze that calms a fluttering heart.  And more times than not, you're poems are just what the doctor oreder!!  Hugs honey!

I'm still smiling...hey, maybe this will last the day...even in the morrow, with no more sad, no more sorrow.

You are lighting my way, today.

We don't call you Earth Angel for nothing...

Hugs and Happiness to you, EA.

She's dusted her angelic wings
And concentrates on happy things
Sadness claimed her for a while
But now she wears a beaming smile!
But rise and shine is what she said?
I'd rather go straight back to bed!

LOL... It is good to see your halo shining brightly again, EA... well done! *S*

That would tickle my fancy if you were to pin my poem on the corner of your bed! Then I would be on your mind the first thing every morning and the last thing every night!

Sweet dreams!

You adorable munchkin! I loved your poetic response!

Yep, my "halo" is shining again! I think all the tears washed away the emotional pollution that was around my head!
