tears of the sun

flowing into the day

like cascading diamonds

striking all that is below

the tears of the sun

becoming the emerald skin

of the earth below

rising to the sun again 

in albic wisps of fluff

gathering strength as 

dark foreboding mountains

the tears of the sun

again flow into the day

as we bask in the

tears of the sun

and dance
