The Great Wonders Of Nature

The Great Wonders Of Nature.

4th September 2001

Today I bore witness to one of the Great Wonders of Nature.......

So beautiful a sunset, that it brought goose bumps to my skin. I was inspired to write this short poem. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

The Great Wonders Of Nature.

A blazing golden sphere, comes forth
Drops below the face of the Earth,
Heated red clouds trail his wake.
Floods shafts of orange and vermilion, for beauty's sake.
Across the arc of the sky they span
Overshadows all the works of man.

In darkened skies, and the millstones swirling glow,
Set to rhythms, ever changing, the Moon's pale light does flow.
Her hidden realm, the mysteries of the ocean,
In all her glories, observed in devotion.
Mistress of both Night and Day, the Sun God's silver lover,
Ever loving daughter, watches over the Great Earth Mother.

Alternate Verse

In darkened skies, and the millstones swirling glow,
Set in rhymths, ever changing, the Moon's pale light does flow.
Sets in motion the mysteries of the ocean,
In all her glories and the dark moon that cannot be seen, observe in devotion.
Mistress of both Night and Day, the Sun God's silver lover,
Watches over the Great Earth Mother.
