Unusual For Its Heavenly Glory

in

Unusual for its heavenly glory,

A simple yet wondrous beam of light;

All colors of the spectrum shining bright.

I would have thought it a rainbow,

But for my own eyes.

Sun outlined in a thin veil of clouds–

It could not be restrained

Spilling its multicolored hues upon the earth;

A perfect column leading straight to heaven.

Mesmerized, I gazed open mouthed,

Would I have perceived this prior,

In my haste would I have been as if blind?

Beauties claim is not staked by the material alone,

This I’ve come to realize.

I’ve opened my eyes,

I’ve opened my ears,

I’ve opened my mind,

And was astonished by the effervescent world…

That surrounds me.

      It was a really incredible site, if I wasn’t driving I would have taken a picture of it. It was a column of light coming straight down through the clouds, but it was multicolored like a rainbow. I couldn’t take my eyes off of it which really isn’t a good thing since I was driving. :)

      Maybe, it was a truly amazing sight and like I said I couldn’t take my eyes off of it. :)
