SUN
No shadows when
the sun is high
no shade when there
is a cloudless sky
sun mercilessly
shining so bright
with her relentless
fury and might
heat hazes dance
all around
air stands still
not a sound
of wind or breeze
do we hear
maybe when the
evening comes near
and breezes blow
coolness will descend
like a pall telling us
the heat will end.
