The Magnificence of the Sky

 
Imagine if you will, a beautiful sunny day. The air is clean, clear and filled with light from the sun. You lie on your back and the sun blesses your skin with warmth. A slight breeze caresses your skin keeping you from overheating. Sparrows chirp and sing for your entertainment as they flit about nearby. You look up the sky is an amazing shade of sapphire that fades as your eyes drift momentarily to the horizon. The blue depths draw you back, beckoning to your soul. You watch a thin, wispy, pure white cloud float across your view. The cloud changes shape and density as it moves across your field of view. You are amazed by the many dimensions of the cloud, the ease by which it floats along carried by the gentle current of air. You hear the call of the red-tailed hawk as he soars across the sky. The air currents lift him higher into the blue and it seems as though he is soaring and is as one with the cloud. Sunlight shines adding a luminescent sheen to his wings making them appear as thin as the veil that separates us from our creator.
