The Sun Shines Bright

The sun shines bright 
Radiating, glowing
with
all it’s might. 

Let me not
be standing in the shadows
not feeling
its’ love, warmth, beauty
and
delight.

The sun shines bright
Mists have blended
Into the water beyond
No one sees bees
No bats fly
In the expanse that surrounds

Nor does anyone hear
The cry
They’re gone, they’re gone

I rest, I sleep
Maybe there I’ll see
And
Seek a world that once here
Belonged.

The Sun Shines Bright

The sun shines bright 
bringing morning
into daylight 
birds sing, squirrels fly 
looking for feasts 
in the clear morning
light. 

Nothing could go wrong 
nothing could be bad 
hoping for the best 
in the bright morning 
sunlight.

The Sun Shines Bright

The sun shines bright
The lake’s like glass in the evening light
I take a breath
Savouring all that abounds
I like, I love the world
That is all around.

The Sun Shines Bright

The sun shines bright
Morning, noon and into night
Radiating heat
Blending, making rivers flow
Plants grow, the earth breathe.

Life lives because of the sun
Its rays beaming from very far
Bringing life, birthing life
Here and on distant planets
Like so many stars.

Feel the heat, feel the glow
Feel it and know
The sun gives all she’s got
And thou she doesn’t ask
We should find a way
A way to give back.

The Sun Shines Bright

The sun shines bright
As the wind blows quiet like
The atmosphere breathes a restful breath
Eyes closed in winter rest.

Let me take it in
Feel warmth following the light
To a time when the sun shines
Even in the evening night.
