” Tryst with the Sun”

Fast, I saw him,spreading his mighty traces.

And called him aloud as he smeared pastel red rays.

“Don’t you ever feel lonely in that big wide space?

I see no company treading with you at your pace!

Your schedule is strange, peculiar is Your way!

You move not with planets, they dance on your play! “

“Is it so?”He gaped at me blinking in surprise .

But I never felt like what you today surmise !

O,my friend, I never was alone, nor will I ever be!

Perhaps you see not that power stably holding me!

All my shine, the prosperity on the Earth I shower,

Are not mine but abundance of HIS benevolent power!”

With his loud words soon on duty he religiously swayed!

Leaving me with my reasons to judge how it weighed!”
