The Sun

It entered through the window

And bounced up off the floors

It bounced around the room

And bounced off all the doors.

 

It changed the look of everything

From the dark into the bright

It changed the time of day

It cancelled out the night.

 

It feels so good and cozy

It turns the cold into the warm

It's just what we love to see

After the passing of a storm.

 

It always makes us feel good

And brightens up our day

It brings us so much happiness

With every golden ray.

 

It has been around forever

Over a million years or so

It's a necessity of life

In order for things to grow.

 

There'd be nothing left on earth

The world would be done

If we didn't have that miracle

That we call the "Sun".
