HELLO SUN
Hello sun! Where have you been all morning,
Lying in bed till afternoon, lazing there just yawning,
Most of us were up early waiting for you to come,
Do you realize that most of your day is over and done?
The water lilies slept long in some shady bower,
I’m sure they did not realize the lateness of the hour
But now here, thrice welcome all of us do say,
So please stay with us for the rest of the day.
