Contemplate the sun, that celestial jewel  
who happily burns hydrogen for fuel,
and shines away the night,
so then, before our earthly eyes,
we see vast and glorious blue skies - 
and plants that photosynthesis
from its warmth and light.

The greens we eat will then provide
the sun's vitality, which we have inside,
causing us to shine -
and, like the sun, we can share
the energy we have to spare. 
So, I propose a toast or prayer
to the universe divine.
