The One That Dispels Obscurity

The sun emanated its tender rays.

It rather peeped through the cumulus clouds.

For guilt and shyness has plagued it,

For depriving the earthly beings of its warmth,

And for not being able to dispel the darkness.

Some beings longed for its warmth,

Some for radiance that brightened the world,

Some simply hoped for it to dry their damp clothes,

Farmers yelled for their crops were soaked,

A few longed to enjoy the beauty associated with it.

Yet some questioned its existence.

But now that it made its presence prominent,

Its omnipresence known by all,

On the 10^th day of its obscurity and absence;

Many a faces lit up into smile,

Their hearts lightened a bit by bit with its emergence,

The butterflies started hovering around,

Birds started chirping their soothing tunes,

As they started swaying from a tree to another.

Hoppers initiated their leap from a leaf to a twig.

People flung back to their respective works,

And crammed the streets and workplaces.

Oh Mr. Sun! Only your absence made us realize,

Your true essence and worth in the lives of earthly beings.

So never take a day off in lighting the world,

And we owe you for dispelling the obscurity of our mundane lives.
