The Reigning Sun

The sunlight brings with it the sound of young birds chattering away, learning how to fly, and discovering new places. A single dandelion stands tall, holding it's yellow plumage high, defying the rest of the land. The cool wind battles with the sun's radiance for power over the days beauty. Sounds of a thriving world blend with the peacefulness of nature.
There is life here, all around us, and all through out us. Everywhere, life continues to progress. Eventually, this process leads to death, life's unpleasant sibling. Death will quiet the young birds into older shells of their youth. Once stoic, the dandelion will become a brown and withered monarch. The wind will eventually make the day bitter with it's chill. This thriving world will hibernate it's animal like lust for life. Death gradually reverses life's achievements, until once again, life will bring the sun back to it's righteous place in the circle.

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.
