What can become of just broken glass?

Your life shattered one day it took the strain it bowed out like the guy in Oklahoma City told me about
His large window bulged almost to the point of breaking from the repercussion from the blast and he
Was over a mile from the impact was your sorrow detonated in the autumn is that why there are so
Many colors gold red and orange then the rich blue sky reaches the dark waters to you it is a cruel
Burning but the loss of love or a loved one restores at the edges as the pain processes and goes to deep
Hidden levels they can and are consumed by time but all the realness they have acquired by a rich life
Flares at the end and with your closeness you will experience each particle moods and portents flood
Over you the basking is intrinsic to the devouring flame noble lives to the most part are hidden from
Sight now like the pine cone there is a hearkening of the pine those moist breezes those drying hot winds
Now are released to tell their stories the fire burning is not the one that is mesmerizing in the fire place
Against a dark base it leaps with red tips yellow and orange perform a natural glory but I’m talking about
Elijah his horses and chariot were glory borne it was the purist white flame look and be amazed be
Enthralled look quickly because in an instant it will be engulfed in the mist sky and heaven converge in a
Single point loss of speech only the jaw hangs open the eyes strain to see inside you feel the tempest
Beat gathering momentum you laid as it were your offering of sacrifice in whatever its form was it was
Excepted I have it on good account that there is a rainbow that covers God’s throne and you’re broken
And shattered life you thought couldn’t be mended think again friend the angels have already taken your
Pain placed it into one of the outstanding windows you will never see a stain glass window on this earth
With such depth of color and meaning there are no tears in heaven but laughter and rejoicing echoes
from broken glass now a show place of stained glass
