I Am the Sun

I am the sun burning bright
I give your planet heat and light
In the morning, when I rise
Throughout the day, across the sky


I’m made of plasma, super heated
Hydrogen and helium fused, repeated
My core is white hot, from this nuclear fusion
Mass energy stored for my distribution


I travel so fast I bob up and down
My solar wind spreads like fire around
Light travels to you, at a great speed 
Making the plants grow, replenishing the trees


I’m good for your bones, but tough on your skin
So try to remember, don’t where your cream thin
Get the right factor for your special needs
As I don’t want to burn you
I’m begging you please!


My time has come, and I must go down
To shine my rays on some other town
I’ll be back tomorrow at the same time
For I am the sun, I forever shine
