Ode to Apollo ---- The Sun God

Your light has dazzled my eyes 

Your burning auburn, a relief to my cries

Your passion eternal;

Your gaze, a knife to my heart 

For all desires to fall apart 

 

Your radiance, an immortal light 

Your gleam, a solace for my lonely sight 

Your omnipresence seems diurnal;

Your grace an unparalleled beauty

Your smile to this mortal world, a serenity 

 

Your flooding beam enough to quench my thirst 

Your luminance no less than your erst 

Your shine as fresh as a vernal;

Your omnipotence my delight 

For my ardour is still alight

 

Your song, a devotion for me

Your luminous glow, a glee

Your blink bright yet fraternal;

Your faith, a reason to my mind 

Your splendor decent to cause every gale fall behind 

 

Your magnificence enlivens the biome

Your wisdom yet an unturned tome

Your incandescence a fear to the infernal;

Your glory to always admire 

Be it rain, or be it fire!
