Canvas
Learn a lesson from the fig tree.
When its branch becomes tender and sprouts leaves,
you know that summer is near.
Mark 13:28
He paints a vivid picture.
His brush lays down strokes of truth.
Though patterns of color
seem difficult
to understand.
He paints a sunless sky,
leaving empty voids
where once the moon had filled.
Every star has fallen,
burnt out embers of what was.
He paints looming clouds of glory,
Recognized by the elect.
This canvas has no timeframe,
other than tender sprouts
of trees bearing figs.
