Moods that can’t seem to find
the light through the darkest shadows
can be lifted with blooms of bright yellow
like a smile sprinkling cheer
into a day washed out in beige.

I bought myself a yellow gerbera today 🌼
Sometimes we need to try a little harder to find the light don’t we.
Hugs and much love to you 🥰🙏🤗
Thanks, Maggie, and how wonderful about the Gerbera! Blooms can really make a difference. And you are so right about trying a little harder to find the light too. I’ve been feeling doomsy gloomsy lately, so I needed to write something uplifting again. 🙂 Hugs and lots of love to you too, dear friend! xoxoxoxoxo ❤️🤗🌻

Golden words…
No pun intended? 🙂 Thanks, Annette! Have a golden weekend! 🥰🌻
Your words always provide a lift and a light. 💖 Thank you, Lauren and a lovely weekend to you! 🌻 A beauty that flower is. Thank you for sharing!
I try, Michele, and right now, I need the lift and light too. So, thank you for your beautiful words. I love sunflowers; they seem to be popular! Have a wonderful weekend! ❤️🌻
Thank you and best to you. 🌟
Lovely poem, Lauren.
I love sunflowers. 🌻
Thanks, T, and that sunflower is quite the celebrity! 🙂 🥰
My pleasure. Yes, it is. ❤️
Lovely poem Lauren, thank you!
Yes, it’s the beige time of year, or here, greige. It’s a real colour. I learned it from studying about making wool and cotton… greige goods.
So the snow is piled in hills, and the pollution has turned it greige. (Literally and figuratively)
Doesn’t matter! I’m your sunflower inside.
The arts, like your writing, fill me with a special happiness.
Have a great weekend dear Lauren!
xo📕🎨xo
Thanks, Resa, and you just taught me a new color! 🙂 Wow, greige, not so pretty, is it? But yes, you are my sunflower! 🌻 I feel the same way about the arts, writing, etc. It’s what keeps me distracted from all the greige in the world (and our country). Wishing you a fantabulous weekend! 🧵📚✍🏻❤️🤗🌷
Yes, the world is greige. So much hate and war, all over.
Still, we grab our lucky star and do our art!
Ahh, and on that lovely thought, I’m going to go draw!
Have a blast! 🧵📚✍🏻❤️🤗🌷 X 2
Good one, Lauren! Laughter, being outside, and speaking with an old friend always improve my mood.
Thanks, Pete, and those are great for me too! Have a good weekend!
Everyone loves to be lifted. Beautiful poem.
So true, thank you, Hazel!
You’re most welcome, Lauren. Happy Monday! Stay blessed.
Very cheerful. I feel the same way about flowers.
Thanks, Mary! They do wonders! Enjoy your weekend! 💐
Very cheering poem! (And of course the sunflower.)
Thanks, Liz! I’m glad you enjoyed both! Happy Friday! 💕🌻
You’re welcome, Lauren. Happy Friday!
a nice positive !
Thank you, Beth! 🌻
Beautiful poem, Lauren! Yellow always brightens my day, and sunflowers are my favorite flower!

You’re welcome, Lauren.🌸💗
…”lifted with blooms of bright yellow”…yes! Much like the beautiful blooms Chris created in Cora’s cover art. There’s something about those sunny flowers. Thanks, Lauren! 🌞🥰🌞

We can’t have enough light Lauren. Thank you for sharing your happy vibes with all of us. Wishing you a sweet and joyful sunday!
I agree, Marie, and thank you for your lovely comment. I wish you the same, my friend. ❤️🌻
Who doesn’t love sunflowers, right? I always delighted in their appearance on the farm in my boyhood. A real summer treat, for sure. A wonderful poem, Lauren. Happy Sunday to you, my friend. 😊🌻
I know, Mike, they’re so friendly! What a wonderful memory from your farm days, and thanks so much for your kind words about my poem. Short, but uplifting. 🙂 I hope you have a cheery Sunday too, my friend. 🥰🌻
Beautiful, Lauren. My mood will be perked up this week with the opening of our daffodils! It will be 70 degrees on Wednesday!
Thanks so much, Dwight, and we also have daffodils! The bright yellow makes it seem as though they’re smiling, doesn’t it? 🙂 70 degrees sounds wonderful too. I think we’ll be close to the same. Looking forward to spring and longer, lighter evenings.
You are welcome! Yes, I am ready!!
Lovely little poem! 🌻
Thanks, Layla! Its big purpose seemed to work well. 🙂 Happy Monday! 🥰
We could definitely use some sunflowers around here.
I’d send you some if I could, Binky! 😁
Thank you for the mood life Lauren…. And good luck too with your book… Sending lots of love your way xx ❤ Hugs xx
It looks like my little poem and sunflower did wonders, more than I had expected, Sue. 😁 I’m glad you enjoyed and thanks for your lovely words! Hugs and love to you! xoxoxoxo
