the undoing hope

the sun is a little larger today
a bit more round
a sated smile on its thin lips, after last night's sleep

she climbed up the ladder, poised dangerously against the blue sky
several rungs in one precarious go, several rungs in one hurried breath 
she wanted to get the sun down, 
before the cloud gets into her head

the sun smiled wider
knowing full well,
like always, it will cast its hopeful shadow on her
before she can pluck it off her rainbow weeded stark blue sky.
