Caring dove

The sun wishes to touch the ground

Here’s the soft sun 

in the shape of a circle 

in the colour of a bright torch 

but it doesn’t rely on the dark to have to be there 

appears when it’s time 

when it has to be 

when it wishes to be 

when it needs to be 

 

seen by many 

visible just as much as that torch or lamp in a dark room 

yet lived with more colours 

Around her skin 

Mainly the blue 

but then the green lives to the side at a distance 

and on the grass with all those friendly flowers 

 

the sun can feel the sky 

but cannot be near to those flowers 

so she can step on the ground and feel her feet 

 

it’s the sun 

if only could just change into something else for a minute or two 

touch the ground just as she wishes 

 

sometimes there’s a wish to be or to ‘ feel ‘ something different
