The Powerful Sun
ALL POWERFUL SUN
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS
All hail, praise to the powerful sun
It has commanded: the day has begun
Powerful streams of energy begin to flow
The once obscured, begin now to glow
The myriad of hues no longer hidden
Exposed to view, blindness forbidden
Powerful streams of energy take over the show
Steam rises from the jungles, a continuos flow
Displacing passive air, causing currents to grow
Movements now circulating, this side’s on the go
The opposite side, hundred and eighty degrees away
Exhausted from the pounding has called it a day
The ever constant sun, now puts on a display
Dew evaporates, leaves open, flowers ballet
Grasses are swaying, clouds eschew the gray
Animals are stirring, birds chirping away
The day has started , commencing interaction
The human contingent now swings into action
The bartering begins, let the trading commence
Exchanging goods n services for dollars n cents
Time out for a repast, as we encounter noon
Restaurants and cafes cater. And not to soon
Action continues, coins exchanging hands
Closing hour approaches across the land
Its been a successful day at all the stores
Stock market hit a new high, investors roar
There’s covert business conducted out of sight
Sordid transactions: under the cover of night
The light has faded, the powerful sun heads west
Bathe in tranquility, give it a rest.
