Collaborating In the Clouds

I speak this aloud if I can be allowed
I break not one vow with my eyes to the clouds
A streak through the sky did fall down with no sound
Then the meek shall survive BOOMED no one was around

Entranced gaze frozen upward could not even glance
Romanced something like opera I felt I could dance
No chance moving tried options but could not advance
My hands trembling strange feeling but loving this trance

Then understanding just flowed overwhelming
Compounding Gods hold on my soul so refreshing
Not even deserving possessing this blessing
This feelings progressing and Im not contesting

I awoke on the ground In the the midst of the night
I knew I had been unbound removed the mist from my sight
In spiritual love I had been drowned and I received my birthright
And I believe I have been crowned dense trees cant hide this sunlight
