Sun and Fun

Anna J. Small Roseboro

Today the sun shines bright and bold on all who head outside
Today we can’t go out how we wish the sun would shine inside
Inside it would warm our friends longing to be out having fun
Inside, not free to travel; inside with no sun or strength to run
How I wish I could be of help to those who wish to be out
Out in the bright sun, feeling bold having fun
Fun because of full bellies poking out
Fun because they have the strength to run
But we won’t give up we’ll help where we can
But we won’t give up whatever the time span
Span across days we remain sheltered inside
Span through weeks we’ll keep our smiles
