The Bright Side Of The Sun
Eyes reflex to the sound of a horse’s protests from over the wall
all the boys at the garage remark
and take another drag and the sun’s been shining all day
Mornings mist lifted like a magic man’s cloak slow and smoky
to reveal that day time disco ball
Even birds smile on days like this,
child parents look happy today pushing bundles of joy on their way
The hit parade mega mix bellows from car windows wound down
The urge to be outside the desire to sit on grass on a level beside the flowers
Looking for a spot seduced by warmth best shades worn peacocking around town
The sudden thirst only quenchable by golden nectar we’ll be celebrating for hours
into the warmth of a summer’s night.
