Poetry Corner: All That the Sun Touches

All that the Sun touches is not bright.

Yet all is illuminated by its light.

The darkest of things even come into sight.

But the depth of their evil knows not of wrong or right.

You can lead a horse to water, but it decides if it will drink.

A teacher can offer knowledge, but the student has to think.

The same applies to all people in this world.

Wisdom is power to either boy or girl.

The Sun can give warmness and provide vision.

Whether someone wants to receive it is their own decision.

Listen to these words and consider them over night.

Soon you will understand why ...

All that the Sun touches is not bright.
