The birth of a Morning-Star
An extract from a book I am currently writing, filled with poetry, angels, love, death and war. Page 1

The Storm brews silently as clouds collide so to do the leaves
of willow tree's. Shaking and vibrating, trucks crash, crackling
as roots unearth. The screeching is that of a fork on a black
chalk board. Branches fall. leaves leave spiralling to the bed
laying their heads up right still looking for sun light. Birds atop
the canapés cry pleading for the sky to halt the summersaults.
As a jolt comes smashing through.
A winged being splits the canapé and sky in two shining a new
sun.
Down on the floor Doe's with children from partners they
choose graze peacefully as if the events that just took place
were merely imagination. Wet green grass swaying in the now
calm wind begin to soar towards the now still legs of tree's.
Honey dew water springing off leaves that remain in there
place, those below taken by creatures to be eaten and used as
shelter.
Rabbits, foxes and burrowing animals appear from hiding
popping their small ears just above the clouds of Red, White
and Blue flowers not touched by the sky's fury.
A tree begins to fall its trunk splintered in three a fire ensues
from within dark charred cracks. As the flickes of flames rise the
tree gives up and accepts its demise, a once tall proud and
wide oak smitten by the heavens
for within a birth had taken refugee. A large hole is shown to be
burrowed outward at the base of the cracks of the now falling
beast.
Silver viscous liquid drop splashing into a unknown pearl like
puddle reminiscent of a pool of blood, its surface glimmers in
the sun giving off star like attributes. A white silk like robe
draped over the shadowed remnants of the tree's stump. For
this tree was its Home for millennia.
As the tree hits the ground crashing onto the soft moss below
golden dust is to be seen floating upward sparkling in the
sunlight but also clouding the seen like a thick fog.
Birds begin their chirping, singing songs of renewal as they
know the event that took place was one of Holy importance
once coming every second thousandth year. The birth of a
Prince of the Sky and Heaven to rule side by side in conjunction
with his Father above.
This was no ordinary Prince though but one that shone so
bright it gave the very life into the earth beneath, and further
below also.
His work would to be awakening.
