The soul of the sun

I am the sun, the power that gives joy and life to animals.'

I make the waterfalls sparkle with respect.

I make energy spread throughout the world.

I see the darkness trail away.

I sense dolphins swimming in the deep, dark, blue sea.

I warm the souls of animals
and let them see light come from the den of darkness,
flowing into the world.

I feel the crisp bright moon come off the sleeping land.

I am the calming sun.
