A sonnet for the Sun
Oh great spirit in morning shine
Bestow your warmth
Vast aspect and reflections sublime
Eos' reborn, in Apollo's ride the terrestrial orb engirth

Give your light, create the day
Your strength too great to be marshal'd
Hold the demons of night at bay
Infernal dances in in glorious blaze dispelled

In dawn's first fires promise
unwind another day's destiny
Night's vagabond tribes morose
Doomed to luminous fire their villainy

Receive, Sol Invictis, our gratitude
Each diurne give beatitude
