The rise and smile of schizophrenia
Where the Doctor lends a hand
Sunny side up
The vibes of those integral bells
Waves crashing resplendent in stocking feet
The curling of her windswept hair
The sun shines far from autumn’s grief
My miracle of improvers
From those quiet whispers now quelled in my recovery
The chocolate brownie that does not make me fat
The OT’s speckled paint that drips on the paper was fun
Sunny side up
The rise and smile of my sweet love
With good mental health I have
Life itself
Sunny side up
