Analysis of The Light of God
The earth shines with the light of God
The sun gave its best in the morning stun
The moon paid goodbye to the noon
For the stars that raced at the night speed
All in the need of the milky way feed
Like the cultivated lands seed
A tremendous scene indeed
Only for those
Who can read and lead.
