Like a skin of the drum – v7

An azure, indigo, violet,
a black bit of fabric
living, shimmering, sequined
like a new skin of a drum

Pulled into position, new music,
hands of God, pulling, drawing
stretching the tent of the heavens
over the dome, the foundation

God’s design, the framework of creation,
living, the arc of the heavenly firmament,
seeking to show us majesty, God’s glory
with shooting stars across the night sky
