Sunshine

Posted on Wednesday, March 3, 2010 by Paul Andrew Russell

sunlight shines in the
unlikeliest of places,
through holes in fences,
on housebound faces;
touches all of us in
different ways,
from the smile of a child
to the words a loved one says,
it’s all sunshine:
rain – liquid sunshine
laughter – canned sunshine
smile – rays of sunshine
love – pure sunshine
.

    Huge grin as I consider a song for every occasion… Let The Sunshine In.

    sunlight shines in the
    unlikeliest of places,
    through holes – love this one..
    and the ending run.. wonderful..

    reminds, of course, of Cohen..

    (i would try to put it all in a single-spaced though..)
