Shine

Shine away Sun!
Hear the laughter, count the wagging tails, see the smiles,
All because you came out from behind a cloud for a while.

Shine away fiery orb!
Children playing and moms cleaning and dads washing cars,
And all because you showed your face today!

Shine away crazy star!
And the buds will peak and cardinals speak and worms will wriggle and children giggle,
And all you did was shine!

Shine away silly Sun!
That's all you do, sometimes we don't even know why you're laying low...
clouds blowing, rain falling.
Silly lazy sun!

Shine today Sun!
Though tonight who knows, where it is you'll go?
All we see is, that the moon is all aglow,
Funny sunny sun!

Shine again Sun!
We missed you through all the snow, when all we saw was white,
and you closed your eyes at twilight. Its not the same without you sun!

Thank you Sun!
For being just who you are, a big orangy-yellow fiery star!
Coming back just when we need your light!
But now goodnight sweet, sweet sun, goodnight!
