The Sun At Dawn is Like the Crowning of A Baby's Head

The crescent sun at dawn is unseen(by most).    
The solar sphere only half-way above  
The horizon is all but unnoticed.    
For the darkness of the night dominates the landscape.    
   
How sad that people are unaware that birth is taking place!    
Yes, the sun emerging past the horizon line    
Is like the "crowning" of a baby's head at birth.
(For the horizon line is like the slit
at the entrance to the birth canal.
For that slit too is a line.)    
Mother Earth is giving birth to a new day  
 - how Glorious is that!    
   
If the morning sun ascending the sky    
Is like a princess in line for the throne,    
Wanting it, preparing for it,    
Then the sun at noon is that same princess    
But now she's on the throne as the New Queen!    
   
Noon becomes a time to celebrate -    
For a glorious coronation is taking place!    
Oh let each ray of light from the sun
represent the burning desire of new queens    
(the heads of governments everywhere)    
to serve and to guide the people of the nation.    
   
Oh let the heat reflected from Earth to sky  
stand for the feeling of solidarity  
of citizens for their government.
