A golden sun
melted in the firmament
As it dipped the hem of its raging fires
into the waters that lapped at the horizon
For to cool awhile its blazing chambers
And the skies turned to molten copper
as the empyrean expanse
coruscated in the lofty heavens
While the vast open skies
became an unquenchable ocean
of seething infinity
Aflow with shimmering lights
that evoked but dimly
The very glory unsearchable
of that great light eternal
That ever shines undimmed
in an unfathomable world
Beyond mortal ken

Water above, and water below
Stuck in between, in the gold array
But, when the sun rises enough
From earthly brown hues low
Or falls from its hanging place
The cobalt blue expanse high
We will there find ourselves
Positioned so precisely
Exactly where God intended
