back

S U N    
I bathe in your warmth
And you kiss my soul
You drink away my pain and remind me
That that that is in you is that that is in me
You bore me and made me and suckled me
You cradled me in the daffodils and grass
You lay open you heart and your marrow
That I might see truth and be free
In spring        you paint my world alive
In autumn      you weep with me and are solemn
In winter        you are wise and my friend
In summer      you are ubiquitous God
And you've seen me grow cynical and cruel
And take a harshness towards who I once was
(I see the light now.) So how can you seem so light and so pure
While meeting my need know justice is King?
I know I can never repay you
For our waltz over everything's being
But I focus and pull you inside me
'Cause the fight for joy's everything's meaning
