Spirit of the Sun
As times change and myths are sculpted
we see the gods once reverred
move alongside humanity,
evolving and ever-adjusting
to our trends, culture, and norms.
Apollo, the god of
healing,
sunlight,
poetry;
all things we hold dear even to this day.
We see the spirit of Apollo
cresting the waves of the ocean on sunny days
with rays of light shining on tanned skin of surfers,
and dancing in the harmonic tones of a song
aspiring musicians strum on the guitar,
and holding steady a surgeon's hand as they save the lives
so their patients may return to their concerned families.
The God of the Sun, of Music, of Healing
is each and every one of these things
and more;
despite the change in technology, in discoveries,
we still hold these same values
and Apollo lives on.
