The sun calls in sick
Clouds rush to cover her shift
No sunshine today

Crafty man
Can you build me a boat that's not made of sand?

Sunny girl
Can you quell my demons and bring light to my world?

You my love
What can you do?
Promise to love me forever and simply follow through

The sun takes her place
Nature's actors prep their lines
Songs ring out showtime
Since I ******* up my original morning haiku, had to write another.

The sun's a pothead
She puffs on her pipe all day
Fishbowling the Earth

Suddenly out of nothing there was a big bang
And a vacuum gave birth to a planet of flames
She finally cooled down after millions of years
Her rage turned to sorrow and inconsolable tears
She wept so much water covered the land
She nearly drowned herself before life even began
The rest we all know, or have beliefs of our own
How this rock went from nothing, to water, to home

Velcro does not work
Scotch tape doesn't either
I've drowned my sorrows
in ashes and ether
In life people come and go
at their leisure
Ask how you are, hope you're well
They mean neither

Leo cracks a joke
But the moon's not in the mood
Grudgingly she grins
