The heavens of the sky
Clouded thoughts of heaven drift away with the rain clouds and autumn leaves, fall, to the ground. Falling like rain, the leaves blow around in the breeze and fall gently from the trees. The sea pounds the ocean floor with waves crashing into the sea on a cloudless day in the sunshine. The heavens tend to be the sky, all the oceans and the leaves on the trees while the leaves compost into the ground, scattering and falling, gathering around the corners and gutters, littering the pavement. Warm, heavenly, days of autumn, linger in the sunshine. The clouds have dispersed once again but skyward ideas take you to the heavens.
Heaven's night sky takes you to the stars. All the stars in heaven are on display in the cloudless autumn night while the planets linger in their brightness, comets and fallen stars, traverse. Meteorites and the heavens unite to form showers of stars in heaven. Angels and God circulate the need of heaven, while the universe smiles on a sunny day in the heavens in the sky. Flying with comets and fallen stars, angels are in another world telling God of all the earthly concerns of human beings. God has asteroids to consider but quietly listens to their concerns. Angels consider other planets for a place of residence but chatter away amongst themselves mainly of earthly concerns in heaven but have other duties with all the fixed stars. Rocks float on by like you are seeing clouds out of the window but are the asteroids, stars and meteorites with the odd planet in toe or the Sun. The pathway of angels is a passage through the Milky Way to the sky. God, the angels and the night sky are our heaven of heavens, in the sky. God is our thoroughfare and the sky for the angels, clouded with wingbeats and all the stars of the night. Night and the moon are the sky in the heavens of the sky for the fallen stars of heaven.
The stars of heaven linger in the night sky and the clouds race across the moon as trees waiver in the breeze rattling the last Autumn leaves to the ground. The odd fallen stars shooting across while the planets sink into the evening and star constellations travel from left to right as though the Earth only moved up and down or from side to side rather than spinning on an axis. Blackholes and space may have their gravitational pull but oh the Sun, we are only spinning in need of her warmth and the light of the Sun. Earth continues to spin on its journey as though for billions of years it has been in awe of the energy of the Sun. Shooting stars fall with the comets across the sky for Lunar the moon and the heavens of the sky.
