I woke up early just before dawn
And very soon I harpooned the sun. He hoisted me high above the lawn. It was scary but really quite fun. The sun showed me beauty all around With pristine lakes, green forests, and streams. Such truly awesome sights we had found I had only before seen in dreams. Winding rivers, some narrow some wide, Open pastures amid gentle hills, Urban monuments and countryside, Snow topped mountains that gave me the chills. Time worn valleys and canyons so grand, A modern dance troupe of swaying trees, A patch quilted look covered the land, Then the blue ocean with its cool breeze. The ocean soon passed by down below Beautiful mountains appeared once more. But later there was an ugly show We floated slowly over the war. I looked to old Sol but was surprised, Because he was nowhere to be seen. In dark overcast he was disguised Not one single ray showed in between. An ocean appeared and passed again And old Sol finally showed his face. He told me that the war was a sin. Or at least mankind’s awful disgrace. He said he had to lower me down Back to my awaiting family. “Only one sad sight caused you to frown”, He said, “the rest were just too pretty”. I thanked him for the wonderful show Then said “such an awful travesty” “That two of the prettiest sights we know,” “You will never be able to see.” He said “I’ve seen all, that a surprise?” “My view’s the very best you can get!” “Ever see morning’s sky when you rise”, I asked, “or the dusk sky when you set?” He disappeared behind a dark cloud, When I turned to wave good-bye. Then I heard the sun sobbing out loud And his tears fell from the sky. |
