I relate to your hesitation to decide whether the sun being bright is good or bad. Decisions are difficult at times; something may appear so much better, brighter, nicer, on the "other side", but that may not always be good. For example I tend to burn easily in full on sun and the bright light hurts my eyes, something that needs to be carefully considered beforehand. Decisions are often tough to make, especially if we don't know what to expect or if we think we know even though we don't.

In the last line, the repeated description of the sun is really interesting in comparison, and I can't decide if the sun being bright is good or bad... sort of like the speaker here, yeah? Very cool. My poetry skills are in poems for children. Your words are like a fresh breath - thank you for that. Katie I like the description of sun being tender.
