P: Sun's Eyes*

46 2 7
                                    

Thy sight of the world with every peripheral

Ultraviolent shall it be.

Other days may the rain cease its fire

But the cloudy days do not speak

For the sun’s rays

So strong

Deceiving as it may be

In sight of all of the world’s actions

Asleep does the moon see thee

The secrets withheld in the night

May the sun bring up with its light

Not to shun but reveal

No emotional connection

The sun watches both sides of the wheel

Bright it may be

Sometimes too strong

Other times misguiding

From every angle

Including the caps of the earth

Shall the sun watch from its distance

Overall

What does the sun believe?

An inanimate object can see

All the ways of the world

But in all truth

Does anyone know what the sun believes?

Punishment given

Or sometimes not deserved

Confusion runs through people’s minds

There is no way

To hide from the sun

Even encapsulate by the night.

  I am at the library at the moment and by sheer chance I found a specific poetry book that caught me by surprise. In my literature book at school we have “The Canterbury Tales.” So happens, I found another book with the poem in it. The book in my possession at the moment is “Chaucer’s Poetry – An Anthology for the Modern Reader by Ronald.”

  Of course I didn’t look at the title. I’ve randomly choose a poetry book to get the spur of ideas not try to actually read some of it. Is that bad? Am I a bad person? I like to see what I can come up with based off of the books that I grab. For the most part of Wattpad I can respond to someone’s poetry with a poem of my own.

  The other book I grabbed was The Collecd poems of G.K Chesterton. Let’s see where these get me. I’ll only write until lunch is over. Until I say I’m not writing based off of them books than you’ll know when I have finished looking at the books.

“Ballad Of The Sun” By G.K Chesterton
