As the plane sits
on the runway,
the earthly forecast
is rainy, dark, and dreary
no hope of a sun filled sky.
The plane takes off
and heads higher and
higher into the sky .
As the plane enters
into the Heavenlies,
resting above the earthly
reality, the clouds are
lit up with the light of day
and the sun is shining
with a brilliant divine
and Heavenly display.
So may we shift our focus
whenever earthly dreariness
threatens our soul to the
light filled divine and Holy
wonder filled-view, where
Christ becomes our focus,
our ceaseless diamond-like,
light and joy filled Heavenly
view whose glory and celestial
light can never be dimmed.
