oh sweet sunshine child
how don’t you see?
you are meant to be a little wild,
your light is what sets us free.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
your bright beam over the darkest time
is what brings us the light we require
luckily smiles like yours aren’t a crime,
and helps us when life feels dire.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
we just hope your sun will never set,
because the warmth you bring
is one we could ever forget.
truly you are such a special thing.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
the light you shine is in essence
the love of God through someone’s presence.
your constant smile is life’s rebellion
and spreads His love like we’re in Heaven.
