The Sun

The sun wakes up the town.
But why does the sun shine down?
On the world we find it bright.
But why is the sun so light?
The sun is so far away.
But why is it that way?
Markets in the sun all day.
Can you bring money to pay?
Playing in the sun, what a lot of fun!
But do you have to go inside to eat the buns?
The sun sets for night to come.
Is adding up the stars a sum?
The sun said goodbye
Now the moon goes high.
