Notes About The Poem

 

Shine On, Radiant Sun

Shine on, radiant sun
           Shine beyond the threshold
       Of twilight. Cast a luminous haze 
             Over gloomy rainy days

   Glory the wet Earth with sweet warmth
        To mask the bitter aftertaste left 
   By today's rain. And just like yesterday
       Color the cityscape lemon yellow

      Shine your rays of dawn on those 
     Engulfed by darkness, day after day
Keep the chill off the air so the human race
         Will happily dance in sunshine

  Dry up puddles splattering unsightly mud
      Swing your magic wand side to side
     To tumble back the inverted pyramid 
  Piercing into a garden of beautiful flowers

                Shine on, radiant sun
            Beautifully bright as always
        I dream of lounging on the beach 
                  Come summertime
