“In yonder heavens” #poem #poetry #verse #writing

• 

In yonder distant heavens ethereal 
Light from a myriad upon myriad stars 
Illumines the vaulted ceiling 
Of the celestial halls 
That with choral song plainsong to echo 
Beyond the veil of unknowing 
The now, not yet 
That all the created inhabit 
Knowingly or not 
Until the time of the great uncovering 
When the veil
So thin so very thin
Yet utterly impenetrable 
Twixt this reality temporal 
And that of the endless infinity aglow
That awaits all 
Is gloriously uncovered 
And the realm of darkness temporal
Is forevermore dispelled 
By the kingdom of light without end
