How does one compare
The rain to the sun?
It doesn't seem fair,
for one starts when the other is done.
Warmth and majesty
Our sun brings,
But a sunburn tragedy
Follows on the wings.
Rain brings cool relief
And sleepy days are nigh.
But through popular belief,
Rain is a dripping lie.
Incomparable
These two separate things,
Equally good and terrible,
Tarnished gold rings.
