Light Seasons

I realize
How silly it is
To be insanely jealous
Of the people on whom the sun is shining
When the earth has moved me to its dark, quiet side, for a while
Or when a series of mostly impenetrable clouds keeps blocking the glow

So I throw off my clothes, close my eyes, and give a huge smile
Grateful
Relieved
Overjoyed
When you light my skin again
