It’s noon
the leaves sway
the air sings a lullaby
and I look up at the sun
like its a reflection
of what I can be.
I smile.
Let me shine
enough
not enough to burn
but just enough to gift
the day.
I can endow these birds
the lilies
the bees
the butterflies
the stray
with a sense of time.
With my soft rays
I can kiss your cheek
before the other takes her shift
and I can be the one
to wake you
so you can see me first.
I rise
I rise
I rise
I rise
I can give all my love to the Little blue-green baby
so beauty flourishes its way.
