Sunshine



By Muriel Palanca



Hello there my friend. Please give me a smile.



I want to be your sunshine if only for a while



And if a smile you cannot give, please save a place for me.



I’ll plant a seed inside your heart and let it grow into a tree.



Into the bark we’ll carve our names and hand in hand we’ll rest in peace.



Beneath the shade I’ll make a crown with the sticks and dewy leaves.



We’ll make our happy ending true before the winter comes to take



The warmth of sunlight in your eyes and the promise that we make



To never lose our childlike faith, to fight the battle though unsure,



To love each other for all time, and to always reach for more.



But if your love you cannot give, then for me please save a place



So I can warm your heart again and leave a smile upon your face.
