#BlaPoWriMo: Your skin is the sun

Your skin is the sun
Radiant
Illuminating
Warm
Looking upon you
brightens my day,
and when I fall
into your embrace
I am brought to life

Welcome to Day 21 of Black Poetry Writing Month (aka BlaPoWriMo)! BlaPoWriMo is a month-long challenge to write a poem every day during the month of February (Black History Month) related to Black history, Black people, or the Black experience.

Today’s optional prompt is: Write a poem about something that brings you joy.
