If Our Sun Is A Star - Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Everyone living on Earth can see,
The Sun shining brightly...
With a radiance believed.

But when we leave this Earth,
Do we become stars...
To twinkle far?

And if our Sun is a star,
To shine brightly day and night...
Who and what is this,
Assigned to protect our existence?

Are we too not 'gods'...?
Here as a work-in-progress.
Awaiting to be assigned,
Somewhere in the Universe...
To exist eternally as 'divine'?

If not...
Why would God insist,
We exist to love Him first...
Above all others?
