Rays From The Sun Poem by Michael Matsuda

'Ignorance is bliss cherish it' - Lacey Mosley/ Vocalist

Being ignorant was not always a negative thing. As a kid, your ignorance did truly bring you bliss. The sun never seemed so bright and the sky never seemed to appear in such vibrant shades of blue. The world use to be simple; wake up and hug your parent[s] and then go play for hours on end without ever having to take a smile off your face. The world seemed to be magical and whatever else your naive yet child like imagination could fathom. The littlest things pleased you and you are immersed into a simple and memorable euphoria.

Then you grow up...

The sunlight does not radiate warmly on your skin but instead, leaves a dull luke-warm sensation. The sky appears to be more opaque and is materialized from more vacuous colors. Your everlasting imagination is sacrificed and substituted for everyday realities. It is then when you realize, the world is not so marvelous and entrancing but is now a sphere that can be traveled with frequent flyer miles.
