    It's an apt title. Wide open and beautiful. Another adjective that comes to mind (and I don't know why) is honest.

    His windmill
    blades will
    chuck off the blues
    as warm pink hues
    form a nebular haze
    of happiness!
    no gloom can eclipse
    what He can endow!
    for the time now
    is a season of tulips!...
