Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows.
Three things that always make me smile.
I learned appreciation for theses things
While I was still a very small child.

Chewing bubble gum on the pitchers mound,
Blowing bubbles then before each pitch.
I was often able to distract the batters
So the ball would fly by them awfully quick.

Lollipops were the perfect treat
With a tootsie roll stuck inside.
They came in rainbow colors.
The chocolate really always was the prize.

When young we never minded sweating.
We were in tune with the midday sun.
I never bothered wearing sunglasses,
While running, jumping and just having fun.

After a rain I looked for rainbows.
It was a treat to be the first to find,
God’s multicolored golden arches.
He loves to paint across our clearing skies.

Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows.
Three things that always make me smile.
But love eclipses all of these things.
It’s what makes the rest seem so worthwhile.
