The Sun that Didn't Know to Set

The sun arose, shining, one day.

And it basked in the warmth it provided.

The sky beamed blue —

The birds chirped their songs

And the soil grew green.

So the sun shown ever stronger.

But then the night came —

and the sun did not set.

It basked more in its power

and the sky scorched

and the birds wilted

and the soil cracked

but still the sun shown and marveled at it…
