The clouds have kidnapped the morning – v7

what if this led the news

truth beyond understanding

the weather forecast more honest;

how little we truly know

about the weather patterns

how the forces of nature interact.

the heavens hold a secret

held within their grasp

something we cannot know;

ancient struggles evident

written upon the sky, in the soil,

in the dust of the earth.

clouds have kidnapped the morning

the sun not visible at all

the sky coming closer

descending from the heavens

clouds pulled toward the ground

hungry for its bounty

holding the sun for ransom

to repay an ancient debt

an unspoken recording

in the ledger of heaven

in the story of life

spoken from sealed lips

the mystery yet remaining

something yet unspoken

for us to take on faith

the sky holds the secret

written on the heavens

revealed in God’s time alone
