I am a worshiper, your faithful sun king
Impatient for winter to thaw into spring
Loving your brilliant mornings and sunsets
Moodiness wanes, I overlook any regrets
Awash in glowing yellow-orange paradise
I’m easy, your sun-showers readily entice
I long for your solstice to be right here
Expecting deep layers of cold to disappear
Burning off, evaporating like morning mist
Stretching skyward yearning to be kissed
Sad sunflowers perk up with growing curiosity
Greeting the heavens with rocketing velocity
Distresses melt loose, with growing viscosity
These joints and muscles drain their pain
My body moans but does not complain
Warmth dives deep, penetrating to my core
I count the seconds till you reach every pore
Packed up, destination known, anxious for a trip
Should I be, in an airplane, a train or cruise ship
I’ll find you anywhere, even cold, deep space
Summer is a memory fading, barely a trace
Daylight dimming as the cold again takes grip
We begin again, this winter dancing courtship
Visions of tropical breeze, kisses like ocean spray
Holding tight, embracing each fleeting solar ray
