CHILD OF THE SUN

Written for Outlaw Poet's Weekly Contest!

She was a child of the sun,
Glorious golden hair sprayed out
As she twirled in the sunlight,
And casting no doubt

As to the spirit inside her
Warm as the sun's rays -
A child of the sun
All of her days.

Her laughter was magic,
Her eyes a clear sky blue;
An innocent waif of the forest
If you met her you knew

That this was a sun child
A gift from above -
Sprinkling the earth
With heavenly love.
