Our Place in the Cosmos

A golden light beam struck me between the eyes woke me with great surprise Brother Sun surely knew it was my time too to rise, to shine, on this long awaited day I sprang from my bed, raced to the window, to fling it wide open,  to behold the sun lit up the oak in vibrant green each leaf an ornament in lustrous sheen Birds singing hymns that soared to the heavens Cumulus clouds shining in the purest, pristine white, so bright, proclaiming  this day will bring the fairest weather  Bewitched, my mind transfixed on a crystal clear day It is the call of Summer’s first day— How shall I answer? How shall I obey? Shall I kneel... or shall I play? No school, no clocks let Summer make its play  I have all day to play. What wonders await on this glorious day? Summer On... ___ Top Photo: Ricko Flickr
