my munificent friend-the sun


my munificent friend-the sun

thomas edison invented 1 bulb n he was extolled
thereafter electrical shops manufactured several to be sold
what abt the one who manufactured just one and his tale is seldom discussed or told
the sun enlightens the world,it possess the power which no bulb or tube light can hold

he very unconditionally n selflessly does this for his son,for his young daughter.
yet we ungrateful souls just complain about the sweltering summer days getting hotter

the high electicity bill burns a hole in our pockets
the prices of it every year simply sky rockets
yet we dont thank the unrelenting friend which functions without any plugs or sockets
my benevolent friend,unlike the fair weather friends ,never wishes for any gifts or expensive diamond studed lockets


he shines n shines like an ingenious one shimmering all day all bright
he relinquishes the darkness bestowed upon us by the night
just innocently smiling n chuckling promising us a picturesque sight
he sprinkles his mystical light on every child whether black or white


He never breaks his promise or his oath
his punctuality is a an exemplary troth
which he has made to the plants to usher their growth
n to us humans,who sometimes mistake his light as the almighty waxing wroth

every morning it greets us with its warm kiss
when the chirpy birds waken up abandoning their bliss

soon the alarm clocks at our homes begin to ring
the ear splitting sounds charge us money to sing

our prompt buddy does it for naught
for he is something on earth we ve got without it being bought
thank him always,ever day ,for he has given us what not
i take this opportunity to thank my openhanded amie who has given me a lot
