I saw the sun go smiling past
A moon faced knight showing red glowing hours
Hiding behind the tree stood moon
Peeping now and then he would
Sun asked, what tidings to carry across?
To my better half when sun would meet
in office with team
Brainstorming target sales he
sun would go down past his door
Noticing him from corner of the eye,
Lost in work , at this hour, far away he
Timings, two and a half hours behind me
“Tell him his family fine”, I said.
“Take care, rest all in line.
Our jawans patrolling the land
Duty to self and motherland first!
I watch the sunset,beautiful and clear
At our home, where beach is near
Hoping for best
In sunset years
Sun then shared with me his tryst
With beauties many ogling bare
On beaches where they lay themselves
Without a trace of body wear
Sun,he stared at them from head to foot
Burn hot their cute frames, delicate beings
But they come,the very next day
Saying we are having our share of fun!
Tinkling cows grazing in open fields
Crocodiles on river banks laze eyelid closed
Butterflies and bees are all about
Making most of the day!!
Then I see birds flying to roost
Ducks flapping wings ,
walk web footed home
On its way ducking the fox
On cloudy days, I loose my heat, said Sun
It remains for many a day
Kids don’t come out to play
Rain plays pranks at games
Cricketing boys run in and out
I don’t have a say, I stay out!
And so it is many a time
They have their fill
while I stood as if still
I miss the laughter of kids at snow fall
They are indoors, wrapped up roll
Wind cold , frozen balls are strewn
My power diminished as if I didn’t exist
The scene is changed, the list is long
Most shivering with grey fall
Cant bathe them in my hot glow slide
I know they wait for my show
I come kindly with my light
Thus my love for beings and things strong
Come rain or thunder, dew , frost , snow
i try to shine on bright and clear
The show must go on dear~! said he,
The life giving majesty of the Sun, in all its guises…
Thoroughly enjoyed this!

I don't know if you've seen the ads or not for the new Disney series, Moon Knight, but you captured it nicely in the first stanza… Cool.
We have suffered a bit from the leftovers of the pandemic and financially from Putin's expensive foray into Ukraine, but all is peaceful and hard-working here, as usual.

and you have them. It's a perfect match.
