Sun & moon

 

“Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so. God made two great lights—the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.

Genesis 1:14-19

 
 

 Born

We rested beneath

Blanket of ebony.

Voice, magnetic, 

Pulled us through;

We were free!


Family of fire

Sojourners of skies

Companions to darkness

Once absent

Now alive.

 

Faceless

We flicker

In circular

Motion

Weightless

We wander

Our pilgrimage

Chosen

By time,

Like ribbons

Tied

To eternity

Time,

Sacred rescue

Driven forward

Bright destiny.



We, the Called Forth

We, the Glimmering Roar

We, the Glow Makers

Silent no more.
