Sun Poem by Christina Simmons

Feel the friendly gaze of the sun
On my back, shoulders and face
Rejuvenating my body deliciously so good
Putting A smile on my lips

Aware with me is a shining bright star - no other
foreign entity evading my psyche - a solar sphere
Fiery red a danger to the soul

Knowing as long as there remains
A distance I'll be safe
The sunny gaze makes me jump and skip a beat
Makes me want to do exciting things
Go wild under its shadows - remained aware it'll go down

Whereupon brings joy to my heart
Refining my shade into a colour
Of deeper brown; so warm and friendly
So happy and energised - having zest for life

For no one can make me feel the way
it makes me feel...so much power over me
Alas! Sadness! In disrepair! Smile has gone

For I know the rain will come soon
So too does the sun need a break
Until next time just keep hope alive
