SUNSET ON THE ROCKIES

           SUNSET ON THE ROCKIES
 
When Christmas Eve arrives, we seek our churches,
Our feasts are set, the guests are due next day,
We've hung the stockings, filled with hasty purchase--
This still and holy night, we kneel and pray.
 
A crowded, busy week is now before us,
No time for sunsets, splendid and surprising--
Ah, wait! the twilight sings, an angel-chorus,
And ... turn! Behind, our glorious sun is rising!
 
RR 1,-1-12
 
 
* And thanks to Bill Crawford's Colorado LOG post,
"... seeing this, one knows that God is in control."
