A Honey Sun

A honey colored sun rises above the sky


A baby opens its eyes for the first time, to see tears in his ma’s eyes


A man dies, a smile on his face as he sees his lovers welcoming embrace


A rooster crows, eyes gleaming with pride, as it tells the farmer to rise

A honey sun is above the sky


A girl does a ballet in her father’s yard while she cries


A horse neigh pierces the sky, as it watches its child die 


A boy sits on his porch, looking glum as can be, waiting for his love to come back to thee

A honey sun sets the sky


A family eats their dinner apart, not knowing the chances missed


A child tucks herself into bed, trying to block out her parent’s cries


A watch stops time, a man looks at the sky 


Resetting the clock, he turns back time, hoping this time things will go right
