Signs



Across the sky
an orange line of sunset  blaze,
magnificent to gaze.
Is this a vision from above,
a message coded in divine abode,
a mystery, a prophesy, design?
Interpreting the times,
dare I but guess the signs?

So wondrous is the demonstration
of God's glorious creation,
untouched and constant His perfection,
and as in heaven, so on earth,
is His will fulfilled in love.
