Notes About The Poem

 

It's Sunday

Matthew 24: 36 “However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself.[a] Only the Father knows.

37 “When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day. 38 In those days before the flood, the people were enjoying banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat. 39 People didn’t realize what was going to happen until the flood came and swept them all away. That is the way it will be when the Son of Man comes.

40 “Two men will be working together in the field; one will be taken, the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding flour at the mill; one will be taken, the other left.

42 “So you, too, must keep watch! For you don’t know what day your Lord is coming




Sunday Morning
 
Colors Of the Sky

Change dramatically

Rose to gold 
Cobalt to pale gray

Crows

Are disturbed
Why

A jet flying to Atlanta Airport

Streaks overhead (thank God up there)    
First flight of the day
A sign humans are awake

Sunday

Most humans will sleep longer
Stay in
Rest up 
Anticipating the sameness of the week ahead

Unless

It is our last earthly day

Valsa George August 20, 2022 at 9:05 PM Sunday is a day to rest and relax. As there is no need to go for work, people are reluctant to wake up early in the morning and they sleep on ! The morning sky is painted in beautiful colors ! Enjoyed your verse, dear Sara.... Sara Kendrick August 21, 2022 at 5:59 AM Thank you, Valsa. Yes, Sunday the day to rest and relax. Sara

Sotto Poet August 9, 2022 at 4:38 PM Sara, Oh, your poem with great sensitivity! I believe that thoughts and emotions are intertwined and supported by one another. Writing that is influenced by spirituality. Sara Kendrick August 11, 2022 at 3:02 AM Thank you, Sotto. I appreciate the thought that went into your comment and for taking the time to leave it. Sara

Victor Buhagiar August 9, 2022 at 8:07 AM So true. The end of our mortal life will come when we least expected. Sara Kendrick August 9, 2022 at 10:07 AM Your confirmation is supportive. Thankyou, Sara

Kim Rodrigues August 9, 2022 at 7:00 AM Oh, said with poignancy! The world goes on and they just won’t look up…oh how we hope more turn from their news and entertainment and remember God. People think of Noah as a fairytale, the resurrection likewise but the day will surely come. Most know Jesus existed and our calendar contests to that too. We love you, Lord…even now come quickly! Hugs ~ Kim Sara Kendrick August 9, 2022 at 7:10 AM Thank you, Kim. My spirit has met with your spirit in my writing and your reading of this work. It backs my feelings that it was Spiritually inspired. Sara
