Beware, (of) Sun!

Googled
Dear Sun,
            I have known you from childhood, I have woke up with you, played along with you and when you rest, our day had ended. What a great time of fun it was, and how pretty good were you those days.., but I don't really understand what has feigned you nowadays? I know, I have been told that "The Sun doesn't turn for a barking dog", but I hope that you can at least hear what I am talking about.

 When I was small, though you were silent, there was a poise in your stature and our parents would believe in you and would send us to play in your presence. But, why are you raging with flames now when it's time for our children to play? Anger might reduce one's lifetime, and don't be in a hurry to burn up all the hydrogen and helium that are always with you, no one would like, or rather no one would remain on Earth, to see you as a "Red giant".

 When one grows old, he has to become mature, leaving behind anger, he must learn to master the art of being gentle. But, see what your case is? who taught you to be so wild? Please, I know that you are busy rotating while I am lamenting, but I don't complain you for that because I know that you are doing that since you were born. I also know that you don't have your time scheduled to sit and hear all my advices, but it is my duty to tell you something very serious..

 See, people are already arranging for "Varuna Poojas" in temples, hoping that it is wiser to ask varuna to come and shower, instead of pleading you to go soft, but if you still continue to be glaring with severity, they might evoke the mighty "Anjaneya" (remember??)  as well and he might swallow you in a second, and the Universe will curse you for that too.. Ok, so, just think of what all I've told and try to be a good boy. Chill, man J

Of  true Interest,
Childhood friend.

  1. The sun was so much better when we were children!
    A pinch of scientific, a bit of nostalgia.
    Nicely written, Priya :)

    As a suggestion, make smaller paragraphs, makes it easier for us to read :)
