The Sun Will Rise Poem by louis rams

The sun will rise

As sure as the sun will rise, and the moon will set
The faith in the LORD will get better yet.
You will see things that you may have seen before.
And in your mind, will live forever more.
A smile from a child, with whom you sat and spoke.
The money that you gave to a homeless person
Who said they was hungry and broke.
A family at a fun park taking in the sights
And their child screaming, and holding their daddy tight.
These little insignificant things, that we
Normally don’t think about.
But when we see them, we start to jump and shout.
We see a rocket that is shot out into space.
Supposedly! To help the human race.
We see a flower open up, and its petals all aglow
Reaching for the sun, and putting on a show.
As sure as “the sun will rise”, and bring in a brand new day
You will see the smiles of the children
Who all run out to play.
Think about the feelings, and what you feel inside
And if it’s a feeling that you really want to hide.
Don’t you feel a sense of joy and contentment, when you
Look at all that GOD has made, and if you turn your back
You will forever live in shame.
