Oh Sun

I don't know what this is exactly. A poem? Maybe. I was inspired to write something for a co-worker who recently passed. I was driving on 280 on my way to school and this came to mind:

Oh, Sun (unfinished)

Warmth seeping into each layer of my skin

As I drive the along highway, heading to my destination

You need not to fret your brightness and heat will impinge

For I gracefully travel along, knowing I am selfishly taking you all in

But you lay too far beneath

The soil, your barrier, keeps the rays out of your reach

Perhaps you do not feel something is missing

As I stand here, selfishly taking in with each layer of my skin

You measure the hours,

Lighting the early sky and darkening the day

The clouds immerse in your rays

An art exhibit of colors and textures, the sky your canvas

More to come.....
