constancy

the sun is always setting and rising
sweet light makes for glorious afternoon
while the same sun awakens a dear friend
miles away...

the sun is like God
sometimes you can see
its glow, feel its heat
sometimes wind, clouds, rain,
storms get in between

that doesn't change the sun, billions of miles
away it burns, faithfully emitting
heat light life, constantly working somewhere
always the same...
