Up where it is
Ever gazing down on God’s creation
how tired you must be
to watch the antics of man
through countless eons
yet faithful you shield
the puny from destruction
keeping a distance
yet giving eternal warmth
ungrateful those that gaze
and dislike the slate grey
of your hue
or need a shield against the blue.

I love the rhyme that you close with in particular. I think rhymes should be sparse like that, it keeps them sweet to the mind. As I was walking along in the cold rain last night, I spoke my thanks to the powers that made me for all the joys I have known, wonders I daily witness and all the terrible things that had been averted, of which I will never know. I think it is an important thing to do, here and there, appreciate all we are and all we have. Namaste.

Nature at its best is always beautiful to behold no matter how harsh it can be when it gives us thunderstorm and hails and gales. :) Daniel. Thank you for reading and leaving your encouraging comments.
Wonderful offering of balance, Grace. Mercy is a rare form of tangible expression through human flesh, but a constant one from Source that we not perish in the dire circumstance of hopeless existence. ❤

:) Thank you, Ahavati, for being with me ... yes and His creations are usually unappreciative. The slate grey sky of a stormy day or the deep blue of a sunny one are always a wonder to behold, in my humble opinion.
The slate grey has dismal connotations to some, but it's on God's palatte so I won't complain. Loved this Grace...
