glory & song to apollo! i sing to thee, golden among gods!
may this song be as sweet as your own, may my fingers
be as nimble as yours — teach me, oh glorious one of
radiance, to shine as you do. honey touches your lips, spills
golden as you turn your face and illuminate. golden god,
swift and reaching, may my words & song be a delight
to your ears. i pray for your wisdom, for your ever learning
heart to teach me. i wish to see as you see, to know as you
know — the world opens itself like a flower freshly blooming
in the golden light of your day. grace my fingers with your golden
touch, inspire me to do as you do! oh, sing! rejoice! delight!
may the world open up before me, every place that embraces
the golden light of your sun, and may i have the boldness to
go! give your light to my eyes, to my hands, to my feet so that
i may go where even the shades fear — unbowed & unbent.

hail, Apollon: The Radiant God. He who shines so brightly and emits radiant light. He who warms us with His sun rays. on this Sunday, i honor You.
i look out at the sun; and how it shines onto the leaves, and the ground, and how bright it makes the sky. how beautifully warm it is. and i think of You.
today, i will read a book in the sun for You. i will soak up the light, and the vitamins, and heat. i will look at Your rays; i will feel Your heat — and tears will well in my eyes. tears of pure joy. the pure joy that You cause me to feel. loving You, praising You, and honoring You is such an intense gift that it overwhelms me physically and emotionally. being able to honor You bring me so much happiness.
thank you for Your warmth, my dearest Son of Leto. thank you for the warmth that You have gifted us. Your warmth is through the sun, the way that sweet music flows and fills my body. realizing that hours have gone by, and you’ve listened to a hundred songs. Your warmth is singing along to a song, then hearing yourself and thinking “wow. i’m not too bad!”.Your warmth is reading a line of poetry that makes you stop and ask yourself how someone could even think of that. Your warmth is something i promise not to take for granted. once again, my Lord,
thank you. i love You.
