The Shining Sun

The sun shines in everything you do
The sun shines although there's me without you
The sun is bright and yellow can't you see
The sun is a reflection of you and me

It's round as a ball and high in the sky
Sometimes I look at the sun and wish that I could fly
When we think of the sun we think of hot
Not to know that it cares a lot

When it's dark the sun is our light
Never knowing the sun is our friend
In the mist of everything

How can it be so?
Because without the sun
No one will ever know

It's true beauty when it comes to us
We will never be so blind or mistrust
That when it comes to the sun
We appreciate and need it so much

The sun beautiful as it is, is a physical parallel to the maker of it which is God, the source of all that is. The sun gives biological life it's substance, vitamins and minerals, as God's love does to our spiritual beings.Donielle, beautiful, write in wisdom. God bless, Sincerely, love moses
