The Darkness At Noon

Isaiah 16 Isreals Flight At the rivers ford wait thou for me Make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noon day. For a cloud hath covered the whole of the land No arms against this spoiler shall stand. Hasten thy path of exile to Moab's door for thou art an outcast once more The route of escape shall to thee be made known Moab shall hide thee as one of her own To the Valley of the crescent moon shalt thou flee Under the shadow of the eagle's wings, sanctuary shall be given unto thee In the cleft of the rock shalt thou in safety hide Until times and dividing of times be fulfilled. Thou shalt be comforted along the way for sealed thou art against that great day.

Dear Lori, Wonderful write, I am so thrilled to read this as it is written in a format that is so rhythmic. Shakespearean style, I think? Congratulations on the win. Keep in touch SAM :-)
