 Capture the fleeting sun in the sky

Never aim at the sun, never, said my mentor,

     a rule I never forgot;

Photos I took, the sun at my side or back,

     became pride of my art.

But art with no rules grew, and took over the helm;

     take it from artists Picasso

and Van Gogh, their masterpieces with the sun

     burning in deep arctic blue.

Take art deeper,  the soul suffers when the body

     is hale yet unwilling;

and triumphs in the works of Milton and Monet,

     their inner sun shining.~

The sun through the trees is a favorite subject of photography.
