John, I'm certain you know the universe is shining upon you. And if it were not, you would have some of us poets to watch what you are doing. Thanks for being such an interesting and philosophical person. It's a pleasure to read your work. Smiles!

Yes, even when we can't get out, He is still looking down on us or sees from within us..I enjoyed reading this one. I have seen several of these also, so there must have been a contest with this theme. Sara K

This is such a beautiful and spiritually cosmic monoku! Whenever we find ourselves in the chaos of this world and look at those skies which hint of serenity ~ we are blessed with the guidance of the Almighty whose divine aura can shield us from all the miseries. Wonderfully evoked sentiments here!

Beautiful and so well written and I think many would resonate, and i definitely feel this too, many times when lost, and feeling alone, somehow the sky does remind me that God is with me. Pleasure reading, dear John. Best wishes. Sending you light~
