Sunshine

When I’m starved for sunshine and I have a bit of time

I go online and plan luxury vacations in warm places

I can nearly see the sun-kissed faces

I thoughtfully time the flights to get the most out of my stay at the tropical getaway

I can feel the sunlight on my skin, contrasted with the splash of the water as I jump in

A frosty beverage on my lips, I start to sway my hips

To my delight, winter hours melt away

I didn’t book the trip, but it felt like a vacation anyway
