Transit of Sun in Capricorn on January 14 each year is an important phase in the Sun's move in its celestial path.Considered very auspicious, a four day period of celebration,feasting and thanksgiving to natural resources is observed all over India in different ways. Bull fights , Kite flying competition are some of the more engaging sports held during this time.

 Sunrise 7 15 am

Sunset 17 45 pm

 

Shining brightness, flashing red

Prelude to the mighty entry of the sun

 The dark sky blue, crimson, pink

Amidst the fog a power packed click

 

How you glow near mountains, seas each day

Here and there you are everywhere to see

Peeping through trees, energizing leaves

 Go up the sky to cross the way

 

 

 

 A few hours is all it takes, four plus four and  two and  little more here

Soon you are blinking again on the other side

 How you come dipping down bright and smiling in the west

 What a sight , the way you change sides and set!

 

 Your sunny steps bring sunshine all the way

Until you reach beyond, done for the day.

We have worshiped the sun from time immemorial. Your poem reflects a holiday that has deep roots in Indian culture. And your depiction of the sun's transit through its daily phases is quite true to the heat of its being.

Your beautiful sonnet brought to mind the song "Sunrise Sunset." The two complement each other perfectly. Check it out:
