Sun-Song
(after Charles Causley)
I am the song that lifts the sky
I am the earth that flames the fire
I am the cloud that calls the flood
I am the stream that draws the sun
I am the tide that drinks the moon
I am the air that sings the leaf
I am the bird that stirs the branch
I am the tale that flies the word
I am the note that spreads the song

Beautiful! A song.
Lovely tribute to Causley and nature
The best children’s poems have a beautiful rhythm and sing -song quality. Yours has this!
I’m sure Charles Causley would have been very happy with this.
Love it!
