Sun, Moon and Stars

Sun, Moon and Stars

A Poem by Nancy Lee Shrader

 

Sun, Moon and Stars

 

 

 

 

Solar System Kings

Rule the day and the nighttime

While lighting the world

 

Ruler of the day

Mister Sun looms high above

Upon his head a crown

 

 

Bestows winter warmth

As snowflakes fall all around

Over sleeping seeds

 

 

Sounds the wakeup call

Flowers rise from winter’s bed

King Sun ushers spring

 

 

Burns hot in the sky

Gives all a glowing suntan

Too long, you get burned

 

Burns an orange heat

Turning leaves to red and gold

Sings a lullaby

 

 

Master of the night

His face illuminating

Moonbeams trickle down

 

 

Lights the darkest night

The man in the moon is seen

Looking down on all

 

 

He’s a shape-shifter

Shifts from full to quarter moon

Moon wanes and waxes

 

Loved by one and all

Moon song sung by small children

In their beds at night

 

 

Under lovers moon

Sweet nothings heard in the air

Moonbeam love tonight

 

 

Stars on moonlit nights

Effervescent crowns

Interstellar Kings

 

 

Sparkling little kings

Blanket the night sky with light

Lover’s eyes adore

 

Wishing point of view

I wish I may; I wish I might

Making dreams come true

 

 

Falling to the ground

Craters dig deep in the earth

Crown slipped off his head

 

 

Many little kings

Another one takes its place

They sparkle and shine

 

 

Night’s Three Musketeers

One for all and all for one

Is their nightly cry

 

Nightly royalty

Holding court up in the sky

No court jesters here

 

 

Kings work together

Unlike earthly monarchies

Unique balancing

 

 

We three kings rule here

God’s sparkling creations

Masters of God’s Realm

 

 

We're doing God's Will

Illuminating His world

God is King of kings

I really like the Sun, Moon and Stars. You could maybe have divided up the segments into three, me having to read it again to get the division line seeing what was what, or maybe change the colors by highlighting it with illustration.

This is so wonderful, and so very inspiring.

He's a shape-shifter
Goes from full to
Moon wanes and waxes

You have woven a most wonderful piece here, i can feel
the love and heart and soul you have put into this. well
written my friend.
