Hues of pain.



On angels jewelled in holy white feather
Upon the mountainous clouds of heather
Through stormy nights explode your bolts
Of gods pure lightning into lakes
To beam his dreams and messages far
Through earthly man animal, heavenly star
Galactic news impressed on faith to looking eyes of deepest grace
Mysterious light of heavenly hews
Gathering poets to your mews
Fantastic protection upon the spires
Of churches nighted by thy powers
To fire the warmth of God in heaven
And spirit glorious to light new soul
For family brighter than moonshon
Guiding footsteps through the dark
Like stars upon feet to walk through space
And glide like snow upon the face
Of expressed babe and adult soul
Returning to glory now and whole.
