Notes About The Poem

Winter has begun and now I miss the sun


 

The Sun

I thought I knew the sun.
I thought I had it tamed.

When it looked dim and weak,
I’d just blow on the flames.

But now my faith is shaken -
perhaps I was mistaken.

It seems the sun has ghosted me.
I miss those rays that roasted me.

Me too - there’s something relaxing about doing homework outside in the shade.

Me too...I miss those rays! Winter is my least favorite season, I am a Texas boy and I love the sun and the heat.

I like winter - when it’s cold AND sunny - but that’s the exception I think. Merry Christmas John!
