"Rapture"
Amazed, I just stared at the sky
while ribbons of light in etheral display
danced in the parting of the clouds.
From the earth came a song
not one you hear just by listening
but something prevalent in us all
maybe buried in the soul somewhere
that sings at the moment of completeness.
And rising around me they came
flickering bodies of transluscence
some brighter than others
as they rose to meet the sky
like children flying into the arms
of a waiting and loving parent.
Someone said this was the rapture
amazed, I just stared at the sky...
