Sun
Effortlessly
Gliding
Gliding
Gliding
Up
A caramel coated sky
Holds the festive, bright Sun
As it starts to open it’s eyes
It smiles upon the children
Still snuggled in bed
It kisses everything it sees
Providing warmth, comfort and light
It swims through the clouds
As if to follow time
It hugs us with outstretched arms
Radiant, luminous beams
That sometimes burn
Heat presses against us as crisp wind blows
Beads of sweat roll down our face
Our skin starts to camouflage
Earthly brown like the landscape
It feeds us nutrients
And plays tricks on our mind
It grows our food
Then starts to slide
Sadly
Gliding
Gliding
Gliding down
Colors start to melt
Painting a picture in the sky
The sun meets the ground
Gives us one last look
Before it finally fades
Into the ash stained sky
Now it grins
Electric white
As we all get some rest
The cool gaze of the moon
Reviving us
Sunny days are some of the best
