George Seal Poet Personification

My Place In the Sun

I only tell of sunny hours...
    That grace my countenance supine.
    For dark clouds mask my daily task,
    Until i welcome back sunshine.

    While passages of time elapse,
    As seasons etched upon my face,
    From springs first kiss, to winters snow
    My gnomons shadow marks their place.

    Each night i gaze so heavenly,
    Towards the starlights grand parade.
    Where jewelled diadems appear,
    As diamonds set in jet arrayed.

    When sunrise casts it's warm embrace
    Upon my face, i will display
    The time and seasons of the year,
    For people passing by my way.
