Shining Sun
I close my eyes
Let sleeping dogs lie
awake to watch the stars
fly by
passing us without a thought
a sacred wish
never caught
Dreams lay scattered
like stars above
a lonely white
flying dove
a sign of peace
never recieved
a suffering child
never relieved
of the pain on earth
never a day
where the burning sun
gives way
to spattering raindrops
hitting the ground
making the slightest
whispering sound
the soft voice
of the world as one
growing louder and louder
until its a hum
then a bang of thunder
shakes the air
voices merge together
everywhere
planet earth
speaks as one
under this burning,
shining sun.
