An Hour in Observation

Let them be for signs and seasons,
And let them speak to us,
As Venus and Mars stand side by side,
Following the path of Jupiter,
While Luna marches boldly forward
Into the lightening dark,
With its face turned brightly backward
To witness the rising of el Sol
On dawn's horizon.

Let it light the way forward,
And let it speak to us,
As you and I stand side by side,
Following in the footsteps of Moses,
While Eru Ilúvatar shines past Dian's face,
Into the emptiness of space and time not yet filled
With glory stretching endlessly in all directions
To bring hope to the hopeless
On the red mountains of Hades.

Let there be no distance between us
And let emptiness be filled by love,
As we look to scriptures written on stones,
Following the knowing inscribed in the orbital dance,
While light cascades past your face
Into currents of life unforeseeable
With a message to carry from the daughters of Jacob
To proclaim the birth of a child
On the soft, rich beds of upturned graves.

Let Truth shine on our faces,
And let us reflect its glory
As man and woman move silently through the heavens,
Following a path we may not resist,
While gods and goddesses run before us 
Into the voids upon which the Spirit of God rests
With all knowing in this:
To see light reflected
On stone.
