When the Sun Shines

When the Sun Shines

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

When the Sun Shines

 

Flowers bloom,

Birds soar in a blue sky.

Lakes sparkle

In its delight.

 

Night becomes day

As darkness takes flight.

The light breaks through

When the sun shines.

 

Though clouds assemble

As a heavy weight,

The sun is still present

Just beyond the haze.

 

A new grace found,

A mercy recites.

A renewed hope sustained

When the sun shines.

 

A little rain may fall

As clouds roll through,

But the light shall come

And make everything new.

 

Grey shadows fall away

As they’re captured by the light.

So too, do our former selves…

When the Son Shines.
