a secular homily




the sun rose today
as it has every day of my life
the sun rose today
as it has every day since
earth and sun came to be
and will until
they are no more
the sun rose today
in spite of
war,
treachery,
calamity,
heartbreak
tragedy,
birth,
death,
the sun rose today

Outstanding , John. I've often wondered how the world can still go on the same as before after a loved one's death. You are right, the sun still rises and the world still turns amidst the tragedies of life.
