No One Stops the Sun From Shining

Again, thank you to Colleen for another one of her thought provoking post’s earlier today. >> https://bikecolleenbrown.wordpress.com/2022/11/30/dependent/ , and my poem here is a instant comment/reply to her wonderful article.

No One Stops the Sun From Shining

I do not try to count

The universe’s brightest stars

I do not try to change

The lonely moon’s moody faces

I do not interfere or stop

The trees from growing

And I’ll never try to stop

The sun from shining

I never had cause to question her personality

We accepted our inherent differences

She was delicately soft

And lovingly compassionate

I was resiliently sturdy

And lovingly loyal

And I will not stop

The sun from shining
