You follow the Sun in the Evening

Or bask in the Mornings first light

Brighter by far

Than any bright star

That shines in the dark of the Night

 

The earliest man saw your splendor

Your brilliance is second to none

Low in the sky

You dazzle the eye

Reflecting the light of the Sun

 

You’re the symbol of fervent affection

Like Cupid, the heart, or the dove

On the fringe of the dark

With the tinge of an arc

You’re Venus, the Goddess of love.
