~Deana J. Tavares

An imprint 

Upon my flesh

Deeply acknowledged 

By the sun 

Her kisses

Upon cheeks 

Until the day is done

Every day 

She arrives

To brightly 

State her reverence  

She never picks 

Or chooses 

Just shines

Upon all

Who are present

©️2023

Remaining positive doesn’t mean

That you don’t see the sea of darkness

Just that you choose to come up for air

~Deana J. Tavares
