There I am, enjoying the outdoors and basking in the sun.
The warm rays filling me up.
Heat rises as I continue to run.
The shine grows as I continue on and over the next hump.
I see the bush, full of colorful flowers, screaming for me to come and see.
As I run closer, the flowers grow, sparkling through the heavy rays.
Purple, pink, blue, and white shine through the yellow light.
Beautiful they look, reflecting the sun and dancing to the wind, but something else catches my gaze.
I push forward, faster down the hill, wanting to reach that illuminating spot.
The closer I get, the further it seems, like a little ray of light, impossible to see.
Yellow grows brighter and the object nears.
The desire blooms as I finally see it attached to a tree.
A reflective mirror to capture all the light, but it is in-fact a locket hanging on the bark.
An old family heirloom lost in the last storm that the sun had given back to renew my spark.
