As Above So Below

stories hung aloft
above us since time immemorial
connecting the dots...

...beauty in variety
before Adam named the animals
God named stars



PS. This LUNE form is kind of interesting...

"God named stars." Thank you for sharing this eye opening short short, thought provoking. I am in awe of stars and believe there's so much more to stars than we'll ever know.

Timothy, call me a LOON, but I'd say you're already very good at this form. Amen to your message, plus I love the title and "stories hung aloft" ~ John

Hi Timothy - God - omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient - since time immemorial - beautiful that he named the stars - but you connecting the dots is awesome! Blessings, Jennifer.

Interesting to think about. I wonder if a Zebra knows it’s a Zebra.
