Sun, you burn so intensely
An orb of power in the sky
Protecting me from cold
And delaying the night…
Wielder of energy
The beginning of everything
Sentinel of day
Ruler of the cosmos
Moon, like a mirror you reflect the sun’s light
Yet you shimmer so mildly
Like a robber you appear at late night---and then rock the seas
And the stars wonder why you behave so childishly
Such a disaster! You’re full of holes
And every week you’re changing forms
Such a trickster! You think you rule the hours!
But you won’t fool me with your counterfeit power…
