The Sun Pays Taxes

The Sun pays Taxes People look at the golden rays of the sun And doubts his richness unlimited Though he doesn’t work nor does any business How he owns such a real estate. Impossible to get proofs That he has the black money. But he does write a cheque Of the pleasant evenings By plunging into the ocean And pays his revenue taxes He even gets rebates from Stars, Moon, Earth moving around.

dr. Ram, I just saw on that one contest that you wrote for, she insists on the title : Into the sunset. I think yours says sunlight in the title. HOpe you change it fast. I think yours deserves to be on the winners list.

Hi, Dr. Ram. Lovely personification of the Sum as a taxpayer. The ultimate taxpayer really. Without his "taxes" all beauty, all life would be impossible. An enjoyable read. Peace...Sam
