Chasing the Morning Sun

In the morning I am tired,

But the beautiful sunrise wakes me up,

It calls to me and shouts my name,

And then rises higher and higher running away from me,

I follow the sun through the clouds and I grasp at it with all my might,

But no matter how hard I try,

I can’t seem to look straight at the sun because its rays blind my sight,

So in the end I miss and fall down to earth again,

Maybe I’ll try again tomorrow,

When the sun is up again.

My name is Thea, I am in 7th grade and I like dancing, swimming, doing art, and reading. My inspiration for writing this poem was from the beautiful nature of the sun and the clouds. They caught my eye while I was looking for inspiration so I decided tro write about it.
