Jan 2017
It was morning when it found her
Defeated
Stone cold
Lonely with little hope
And no light to show

But quietly and patiently
Silently and lovingly
Triumphantly and eagerly
Spring gently woke her

She was greeted with gold
New warmth held her close
and whispered to her

You lived!
You survived!
Her time had finally come to arise
To step forward

For the white snow had melted
The bitterness surrendered
The numbness was killed
Her doom and darkness were gone
The winter was over

Her trees blossomed to life
Their leaves kissing the branches
Her flowers bloomed in bright colors
Their petals sweet smelling
Their faces stretching up to the sky  

Her woodland creatures waited
For their story to unfold
It had been told before
That the sun girl would come home


So she arose in all glory
and walked slowly into the light
Its brightness was blissful
Its promise a fulfilling sight

Her heart began its pulse
Her lips turned to a curl
She threw her arms up into the air
In a canter she began her flight


She had known before
That she would be reborn
and the universe was happy
Because the Sun Girl returned
