She Is!

When all that is quiet has fallen upon us She rests herself to What we know as dusk Resting her shapely star That exists from a far A source of light and vitality Brought our way with no formality When she closes her light We then feel lethargy right Without her presents we could not survive Her surface temperature keeps us alive Suspended in space 1.4 million km across She shines on the opposite side with gloss She turns every 25 days Bringing us her heat and praise She is a nuclear fusion So there is no illusion She is the largest object in our Solar system A glorious part of the ecosystem The Greeks called her Helios I say she is our hero We intend to be A worshiper of thee She is The sun
