Brief on The Sun Rising

The Sun Rising by John Donne is a genuine evidence of meta physical poetry.
The poem deals with the theme of Love of a lover for his beloved. It's an address of a lover to the rising sun, in which the lover portrays his beloved,Superior to the rising sun.
The lover addresses to the sun as Lazy, Old,Fool because it peeps through windows & curtains into the bedroom of the lover. He wants to make clear that the season & time of lover's can never be governed by the sun.lovers do not accept the concept of time.
The lover isn't ready to believe that the raise of the sun are powerful. It's possible for him to create an eclipse on the sun simply by closing his eyes but he doesn't do that because for a moment even he can't bear or tolerate,losing the sight of his beloved.
The lover mentioned that after taking a round of the earth,the sun would realise Real India of spices is in the bedroom in the form of his beloved.
He compares his beloved with very significant things. Wealth has less importance in compare to her.so they both are not ready to accept worldly rules & regulations as set by the sun.
It's an experiment of Donne that he uses images from the field of politics & nature for the expression of love.
Thank You.
