The sun~poem also rises every evening…

A.P.U (as per usual):
this testimony~phrase tilts me sideways,
to relieve the condition, needy to be righted
one must expel the belly kicking seedling,
looking to be outed as a full fledged tree,
a poem planted, a gatherer of insects,
giving shade, perhaps shedding fruit

the sun bids adieu, self~same~centrifuge
of our solar system, is indeed alway rising
somewhere, though the light of our naked
eyes weak, incapable of trajectory bending,
to follow its course’s curvature, nonetheless,
we know it but struggle to believe just as we
struggle to complete, compare, and compose

replanted words in your heart, words that trigger,
are the notions inherent, of a center, rarely eclipsed,
that never ceases to offer up nouveau hope in each
of the days, a placenta to fret you blood and oxygen,
once purposed, discarded into darkness,

b u t
the words rise again, offering what you seek,
diurnally, need, to find within them, for my child,
is now
our child

Sun is bright enough to stretch that beautiful smile on her face.
Intense enough, to make her believe the beads, pearls & diamonds were always the the sun’s rays.
She gazed out of the window while flying, caught her sight at the round shiny star, picturing what would be her future days.
Her faith in the sun was at its peak, as it has always have been while tears rolled down her cheek, carrying immense sorrow and pain.
Never imagined, the brightest start in sky could become her best friend.

The moment clouds emerged and guarded the sun, she became gloomy. Awaiting her star to return, outshine and restore her faith in love.
The sky seemed so clear, just like a pure bright sun and her dreams were very big, again like that pure bright sun.
The clouds did not fade, but shined along, all thanks to her dear friend, the bright sun.
Her relaxing seat on the airplane, couldn’t do much because she gazed out of the window, kept looking at the pure bright sun to come.

Little did she know that her closeness with the sun would enhance so much. The soothing sky, beautiful clouds and her thoughts shined like the pure bright sun.
She forgets the agony, angst, sorrows, worries & gloominess, all thanks to her friend, the pure bright sun.

I love you, Mother Dearest
Your warm floral dress is my origin of choice
A tall beauty with intricate patterns on your skin, begging to be noticed
You fed me breaths and I grew tall- not as tall as you, but boy was I strong
I took my strength and I buried my heart into you

I love you, Mother Dearest
My heart grew where I planted it, it didn't take much to thrive
The soil was so clean
And you were chipping, but your mind stayed pure
Death was around the corner but you weren't afraid, you told me "It's no different from life, you just become light"

I love you, Mother Dearest
I know you are gone, but you aren't
You can hear me, but you can't answer the way you used to be able to
Clones of beautiful individuals take your place while you make your way up top
If I had the choice, I'd pick the sun too

I love you, Mother Dearest
Mother of all trees
Philosopher
Life supporter
Understood all

And I love you, Sun.
