POEM: something about the sunlight

sunlight

something about the sunlight

it’s something about the sunlight
the way it hits your skin
here where the ghost keeps his lonely watch
over actors and students

or maybe it’s the way the universe expands
even faster in your presence
like the stars and the planets
are eager to please you

I know how they feel
as I drop what I’m doing, fling open the door
rush into another gorgeous afternoon
in search of adventure

it’s not the destination
it’s not even the journey
the real key to a joyous life
is whom you take with you
