Quickie 4#: Standing in the Sun Shall I wake you, little one? Your little heads rest upon my lap as a sweetly call your name, "Time to raise my little star." Sleepily I watch as your tiny blue eyes meet mine and all I see is your father's staring back at me "Mommy we are there yet?" you reply to me as you rub the sleep from your eyes.

"Yes my little one I hold most dear," I reply. "We are in the lands of you fathers."

"Is daddy is here too?" you reply with a gleam in your eyes

"He is waiting for us my little one," I reply.

"He is?" you reply, your eyes so wide.

"Yes my little one," I reply brushing a curl from his face. "He longs to see you."

"Are we going to join him in the sun mommy?"

"Yes little one," I reply as I feel the as the doors open. "We shall finally join him in the sun."

Your face beamed as bright as Rao's red sun, we where home. We were finally home.

Afraid so afraid you were when they opened the shuttle doors. Strange face bow before us, you duck behind me my little one.

Welcome oh Moon, beloved of our Sun,

Welcome oh mother of the little Star

Welcome to New Kandor the new home of the children of Rao

Hand in hand we leave the shuttle and step onto the lands of your people.

So wide eyed, you were my little one as you see your father's people

Noble and proud

Your imagination runs wide; I see it in your eyes as you look up at me

You tug my hand my little star

"Mommy can you hear it?" you ask. "Do you hear the sound of a beating drum?"

"It is not drum that you hear my little one?" I ask. "It is the sound of your father's heart."

"His heart?" you ask.

"Yes little one," I reply. "He hears ours hearts too and knows we are near."

"Will he like me?" you ask.

I laugh, "He has love you since before your breathed your first breath little one. He has loved you as if he had kissed my stomach as your grew and grew within me. He has loved as if he held you in his arms as after you were born. He has loved you as if he had wrapped you in his crimson cape as he named you Jon."

"But he has never seen me?" you ask. "How can he love something he hasn't seen mommy?"

I smile as I know you are apart of us

You are our blood

Made from our love

The best of both of us in one tiny form

"Because you are apart of him little one," I reply with a smile. "That is how I know he will love you."

The Citadel comes into view, oh my little one

We hear the sound of joyous music fills the air

The dawn has come under Rao's red sun

The night have ended, oh my children

The dawn has come for Rao has risen

The dawn has come for moon has returned home

The mighty doors fling open

We see a building full of people waiting to see us

Moon and Star have come

Moon and Star have return to Sun

Oh little star you see him as we walk into the Citadel

A man draped in draped in blue and red

The symbol of El proudly on his broad chest

You look down at your own and see that his matches your own

"Is he Superman?" you ask pointing to the man with the 'S' that matched your own. "Is he my fathers?"

"Yes little star," I reply. "He is Kal-El. The one who loves brought you into this world."

You see him standing there before you as a god, yet he is just the humble son of a farmer

You hold my hand tightly oh my little one

You stand on awe of the world around you

Forged of steel and fire

You hear his heart race the closer we come

Down the aisle we walk

All eyes on us

Your heart races

"Go Jon," I whisper.

You look up at me, your face full of smiles

In a flash you release my hand oh my little one

Your tiny legs race towards him

Kal kneels down, his arms wide open

You run into them

Tears pour down his cheek as he holds you close

"Welcome home my little star, my Jon," Kal says to you.

"Why are you crying father?" you ask as you wipe away his tears. "Have I made you sad?"

He kisses the top of your forehead

"Oh no my little star you have not made me sad," Kal replies. "You and your mother have made me really happy. I have moon and star back with me."

Embrace and love surround you our little one as I reach you both

I see Sun's eyes

Hunger, desire, passion, fire stare back at me

With you in his arms Kal embraces me

His lips claim mine

"Now I am whole," he whispers. "Now that I stand in the sun with my moon and star."

"Now I am whole," I whisper back my eyes filled with tears. "And that I stand in the sun beside you."

Oh our little star we are all whole now

For we are home

All of us

Sun, Moon and Little Star
