Poem: A Beautiful Day

What a beautiful day,  May I exclaim,  To such a wondrous way,  I wish to acclaim.  The sun streaks across,  The urban terrain,  It won't get lost,  As lone as it fane.  The soft pillows,  Floating in the sky,  They puff and billow,  Just able to move by.  One last look,  At this beautiful day,  It'll be in my book,  For a great future say.  If you have a burning question, or would like to featured in some way in the "Ask them from me" segment, email me at: cc3493@gmail.com.
