With the sun comes another day,
As the rays wake up all forms of life.
Squirrels peek out from their nests,
While birds coo a soft morning melody.
The leaves stretch towards the sun,
Needing the light it provides.
The sun sets and is replaced by the moon,
Not quite as extravagant as its brethren.
All is quiet,
As sleep takes over each conscious mind.
Bright stars loiter the skies,
A natural guide through the dark.
To me, and all whom love you -
You are our sun and our moon.
Like leaves stretch to the sun,
Every crowd reaches to you.
You are a small ball of energy,
That gives light and hope.
As the moon brings sleep,
You bring peace and serenity.
All is at ease when you smile,
And all that is wrong is forgotten.
The heavens shall weep for our loss,
And the stars will be your mentor.
Each raindrop and each star - no matter how big or small -
Represent the love you possess,
And shower us with each day.
A little piece of ourselves die with you,
And in its place comes a new joy.
Away from the pain and misery,
A haven you now inhabit.
Despite the fact that you no longer walk among us,
You memory, your heart, and your love continues to feed us,
Like the air that we breathe.
You have kidnapped our hearts,
And we will never forget you - for you are our sun and moon.
We will love you,
Even after the world has long gone,
And all is left are the stars above.
