The day has dwindled short, <br />The sun, it traveled far, <br />Shining down, a southern port, <br />Some warm Caribbean resort, <br />The sun, it is our star. <br /> <br />Turn around, tomorrow's sun, <br />Long journey heading north, <br />Another cycle has begun, <br />So as, another day is done, <br />Safe passage, back and forth. <br /> <br />Six months from now, overhead, <br />I'll see your shining light, <br />Stay up late, to watch you set, <br />Dream of your red silhouette, <br />All through, the darkened night. <br /> <br />A star was born many years ago, <br />Our planet then was dust, <br />Creation, true within the flow, <br />The love, his son, bestowed, <br />Our planet filled, with trust.<br /><br />G.R.
