Day off and the sun is Shining

Good morning blogging friends! I'm off work today and wanted to share a bit o' sunshine with all of you...enJOY!

I've lots on my ToDo List today, but most of all I'm going to enJOY a slow-paced time of crossing these things off my list amidst enJOYin' the sunshine.

Sunshine Bandit -- Child Abuse

This topic strikes very close to home for me ... in more ways than one.

Sunshine Bandit

To steal the sun from fertile land,
Leave in its place a cloud of gloom-
How dare you take me by the hand,
Walk me across the crowded room...


To whip the wind from pleasant hum,
Down to the dirt and cowed in space-
How dare you take songs that I strum,
String them along in shrouded place...


To slice the sky with frozen dart,
Douse my dreams with a silver storm-
How dare you take hold of my heart,
Bleed it broken in ploughed field form.
