The exercise:

It's an absolutely beautiful day here in Vancouver - sitting here, with the sun pouring through the window, it feels like Summer has arrived.

So today's starter is: sunshine.

Mine:

The flowers on the table
Can weave a lovely fable
When posing in the sunshine
That rests gently on its shrine.

The tree branch waving outside
Casts a shadow that divides
The living room with a line
That's had a bit too much wine.

The skin on my face drinks in
The gentle heat with a grin;
It's been too long since the day
The sun last came out to play.

The exercise:

Write about that big burning thing in the sky that we take for granted - today we pay tribute to the sun.

Mine:

Such a fickle fellow, the sun;
A few clouds come along, he runs!
He slinks slowly away each night,
To rise rather late, just as bright!

After missing my sun for days,
I've been burned by his white hot rays!
Such a fickle fellow, the sun;
I'm so thankful there's only one!
