My Journey to God

Stargazer

It is a night to stir the soul,
To watch the heavens all aglow;
A colorful spectral meets the eye
As fiery meteors rush by,
Born of brimstone, fire and coals
With a destiny no one knows.

Does life exist out in that maze
Of worlds that glow and stars
that blaze?
A universe of endless space
Where planets spin and comets
chase;
Infinite wonders of the skies
Awaiting gaze of curious eyes.

So if you be one of these,
Seeking cosmic sights that please,
Blessed by beauty that you see,
You are a dreamer just like me—
Beholding trails where angels trod
And know you saw the Face of God.
