Below the Firmament While watching clouds that cross the sky, A rising column caught my eye. Upon it's top, three figures seen. The one in front appears to lean Against a wall that is waist high. With arms braced, watches all go by. He looks so strong, I'm sure I can See the outline of a man, With two behind who also peer Across his shoulders, standing near. There is a feeling they're intent On what's below the firmament. It's just a cloud shape yet I see A similarity to He Who surely watches us with love From His view point high above! It doesn't fade, but then, at last, Another cloud mass slides on past To hide the shapes I focused on And when it passes, they are gone! I wonder if sometimes He stands To watch the vast parade of lands That travel round the sun each day And counts the ones who kneel to pray!

Trillium, It's nice to know that another dreamer has their mind upon the clouds... After all we are to be looking up for our Salvation draws near. It is awe inspiring indeed to try and imagine how GOD must see the world. Very nicely written verse. GOD bless. -Bob |

Bob: Thank you for your nice comments. The sky will likely be the first place His coming maifests itself. I can't even imagine what that will be like! Betty Lou Hebert |
