A sunbeam from the Sun, ninety three million miles away. Yet, the warmth and brightness did not diminish as it touches our skin, and brings the world into focus for all to see. The sunbeam did not go missing, it just took some time for it to reach our humble Earth.
As the sunbeam reflects from our eyes, do we not see the beaming smile that radiates from someone we love? That beaming smile coming from the eyes of the beholder can be the brightest yet we must have seen from where the Sun is - millions of miles away.
Excellent write. Bravo! Well done!
Cheerio, hugs, Richie. :))

Hi Brooke,
You have attempted the sunbeam with a different approach and style and I loved it. An "Excellent write" comment from me meant it is a six star write, smiles.
Cheerio, have a great Sunday. Time flies and soon Sawyer will be in full time school very soon. Look like we are not getting younger, are we?
Hugs, Richie. :))
-
Richie, I'm with you there, not getting younger by a longshot LOL
-
Now that's what I call honesty and wisdom in a short putt, big smiles.
Cheerio, hugs, Richie. :))

I am sure Sawyer will be the sunbeam in the classroom. I can't imagine any different. He's so bright. I loved your poem. It's wonderful.

Thank you so much, Barbara - I love the idea of a class where hardly any of the kids are potty trained. LOL I cannot even imagine what a lesson consists of :-) Brooke

I do believe you like that boy! This one, I read twice, the second time out loud. It flows off your tongue. A beautiful post. The rest of us have to really work hard to get the right art work! Bill

Comment from JeffreyVPerry
This poem makes me smile because it is first well written, then it also reminds me of when I would write as a younger person, with an imagination a mile long. It is so hard today to ever think that way again, because as grownups we tend to become too serious.

Hi Brooke,
Nice play with the allegory of a sunbeam representing the joy of a child at the wonder of the world around him - and the joy that brings to us.

Comment from Glasstruth
Has a great flow and rhythm; and educational for children who don't know the distance a sunbeam travels. The ending two lines really caps this off brilliantly:
"the sun that's beaming from your eyes
each time you smile at me."
Enjoyed immensely. Les

Comment from Louise Michelle
Oh, Brooke, this is just darling. The second stanza is so whimsical and put a big Cheshire grin on my face. You know what just occurred to me? If Sawyer grows to be a man with no writing abilities, he can use Grandma's poems to charm the ladies, lol. Hugs, lou
