The Sun

The sun rises and warms It touches my face Sweetly, like a kiss from a lover Lovingly, like a sleepy smile from a child in slumber The warm caress flows Lightly on thy skin Showing that thy father smiles And does not weep It is his love that this shows As if he is telling the world I love you Be not afraid anymore For i am here and will keep thy In my heart

While riding up the Seine River in Paris on a boat, I saw some French graffiti on a wall saying "vive le soleil" which means "long live the sun". This is a good first write here. Welcome Karah.

It's easy to see why our far ancestors saw the Sun as a God. You caught that concept well.
