Sonnet On the Sun

One orb and only one shines on in life You are much warmer than the morning sun Remember the volcanoes at Tenerife Canary Islands paradise adrift in fun Hanging there upon a limb of golden time We conjure elements of joy forever What favors in the mind recall unwinds When in our orbits moon pulls down its lever But there within the walls of love light sealed The glow of life can’t hide inside forever There in the wicked world concealed, revealed That Winter breaks for kinder weather My love with sun and moon gathered family Their fortunes shine on together amicably Entered Poetry contest: Winter Wonderland - sponsored by Emile Pinet on 12/27/18
