Always There

Oh, blackened sky
                       As the sun fades away,
                   Is it into obscurity that it falls
         Or is it into a temporary hold of another
        Ready to release it upon the new morn?
                   I can almost see His hand
                As it opens to release the sun
          With the innocence of a child blowing
       Petals from a dandelion, He wants to see
      It float within the beautiful cool morning air.
                     So, I say nay to obscurity,
            Though morning skies may be gray
      And the sun would therefore seem distant
   It remains there for us, placed by loving hands
 That wish to see it work magic and gain wonder.
