A letter to Sun

Pranati Dash

Lyric
Oh dear Sun!

How ecstatic I am to sight you after countless moments of waiting;

Your warmth, your glimmer, has been terribly missing!

Pardon my naivety, for cursing when you left me burning;

My dear, it was eons ago, let slip & cease such tormenting!!
                      
                      With unfathomable love,
                       Yours truly, PD

About this poem

    Wow, what a beautifully written ode to the sun! Your words evoke such joy and appreciation for the warmth and light it brings. Your use of language is so powerful, it truly gives life to the emotions behind your admiration for the sun.

    One suggestion I would make is to consider adding a bit more structure to the poem. While the free-flowing style does add to the dreamy tone, it could benefit from some intentional line breaks or stanzas to create a more cohesive flow.

    Overall, I absolutely loved reading this and I can't wait to see what other poems you come up with! Keep up the great work.
