The Message
I saw the sun at mid night
Up in the skies
The clouds, stars and the moon
Dismayed
They all gathered around
In silence
And in a bit of time
There was melancholy
Then the sun brightens and brightens and brightens
The stars and the moon ran away
It brightens more
And more and more
And agony raged
Then came a blast
The sun!
Yes! The sun blasted
All was thrown away
And the earth shocked in fear
And then in trembling
I looked up to see
I saw the blasted sun
Like a piece of cloud
Walking towards the right
In colours of light
Yes light!
Like those light of the Christmas tree
Beautiful beautiful shining light
Suddenly the piece of cloud turned to hundred of shining lightening doves
With the Christmas light on both wings
Which flown in their numbers to the earth
They hover round and round and round
Then settles upon the roof over my head
Hmm!
I saw the their beauty
An incomparable beauty
Then those consumed by the soil
I met all fit again
I saw this and that and that
I saw the faithful who later became doves
Hover a while and vanished away
The message was quite received
It was brief
That not long from now
The Son of Man will come
