Poetry On Odyssey: Sunshine

To know God is to know sunshine on a bright cloudless day.

Poetry On Odyssey: Sunshine

At 10:59 at night, I find myself feeling grateful to have known the Son.

The Son that shines during the day and

waits with you during the night.

The Son that shines so bright- the Son that fills my darkest nights with pure joy and

Son light.

Yeah, I am grateful for the Son.


Have you heard about him?

Have you experienced his presence?

I have.

I have felt the Son warm my skin with yellow rays from heaven.

I've felt the Son's embrace and have never counted past eleven

waiting for him.

He is always on time.


At 11:00 p.m., I fell pressed for time-

Sometimes, I get tired of waiting on the Son and I start counting to eleven because I forget that

The Son is always, always on time.

Before I can even press my lips together to start counting on the Son,

I fall asleep to

open my eyes to the sunshine's bright light filling me up.

Pain only last for the night.

Joy, and the Son, are always there in the morning.

Every day I leave my mourning and I come back to peace and

The Son and the Sunshine.


I've come to rely on those yellow rays of love that the Son seems to bring every single day.

Coffee! Coffee! Coffee!

Lorelai Gilmore and I are kindred spirits.

Coffee! Coffee! Coffee!

When I was in high school, I was the occasional coffee drinker, if you could call it that. I would drink Starbucks frappuccinos and iced mocha drinks, which were more like snacks than coffee, BUT they had coffee in them, so I said I drank coffee. I progressed from my love of “snack drinks" to a more general appreciation of coffee, and would have a cup of coffee once a week or so. My “cup of coffee" would consist of a little coffee and a lot of cream and sugar, but it was coffee nonetheless. Then I started college.

JoinOneLove

Today's society places a ridiculous amount of importance on social media and what we see on our computer screens. Some of these short films you might have seen shared on Facebook. Some of them you may have never even heard of. Whatever the case may be, these productions have used thier position of power in our world today to spread a message. The messages vary from domestic violence, LGBTQ acceptance, self-love, the role of men in society to end the unfair treatment towards women and even the promotion of the furtherence of medical discovery in our country. Regardless of the message, each film advertises something that needs far more screen time than Victoria's Secret Fashion shows or Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

If you are going home for the summer, here are some things that will happen to you.
