Dancing sunny light defeats dark monsters.

Sun and sky shimmer evasively in the dark treetops. Muted bird and insect songs lightly vibrate in dank air a stinging cold breeze dances forlornly in my face.

Dark thoughts play hide and seek, now you see me, now you don’t. A struggle between despair and peace? Gloomy feelings fight happiness’ bubbling fountain,

sunny happy-go-lucky thoughts surface slowly. The Dark Beast growls loudly and spitefully, dismayed at happiness riding synapse highways.

The Thing is eagerly waiting to brawl the day’s dawning light — but not today, as darkness lifts. Orange, warm hopeful sunny rays fill the sky.

Walking serenity in a chirping forest’s nature light dance. Sun warmness all around, energy spreads widely within, gleefully soul dancing in time with tweet and chirp sounds.
