Give me the splendid silent sun with all his beams full-dazzling.

The sun does amazing things. It casts shadows. It illuminates. It winds itself around trees and branches and shines through leaves. It glows and warms. It is amazing and beautiful whether rising or setting.
That said, I wouldn't want to have to try and keep it in my backyard. First, it would burn the earth to death. Second, my yard isn't that big. Third, I have nice neighbors, but I bet they'd complain about that. Fourth, I don't know if I'd be able to get much sleep with the sun in my backyard.
Despite it all, "Keeper of the Sun" would be a pretty cool title for me to have.
