The Apocalypse--A Revelation ... Chapter Seven (First draft)

Left campus Sabrina late
arrived home
in time to only meditate
on final exam's still sketchy state

as just before entering her door
rain began
it thundered yes poured.

Thunder & Lightning Sound Effects High Quality


As she watched its magnificent display
knowing pure deadliness with one should not play

as bolt temperatures hotter than the sun's distant plain
plus shockwaves beaming
bouncing in various directions

to venture out in it is suicidal insane
a plan begins to formulate
inside her electrified brain.

Thought Sabrina
of life's necessity for nitrogen
and added questions
about other nature's origins:

"From what direction is light dispersed,
And from where does the east wind blow on the earth?

Who has cut a channel for the flood
And made a path for the thunderous storm cloud,

To make it rain where no man lives,
On the wilderness where there are no humans,

To satisfy devastated wastelands
And cause the grass to sprout?

Does the rain have a father,
Or who fathered the dewdrops?

From whose womb did the ice emerge,
And who gave birth to the frost of heaven

When the waters are covered as if with stone,
And the surface of the deep waters is frozen solid?"
are questions she reiterated
just not out loud.

So, inside the solitude of her room
with these musings she did resume

since admonished to 'make sure of all things'
in defense of my beliefs do not 'shrink back'
to delay or forever hesitate

with nature I'll start."


Although, just for a moment
she flicks on the tube
to unwind, not turning on the light
to relieve the dark

she does sigh as again
pass her sheered windows

she remembers
a globe groans and bemoans
strains

shooting stars and galaxies galore
beyond the storm still proclaim
an intelligence, an energy

a power not to be distained

as plays in the background
Skillet's music score
many a youth this band does adore

Sabrina enjoys also its lyrics
and refrain:

Afterwards she wonders:

Do they the Bible literally take 
teaching that everything in the universe,
including the earth
and all life on it, is only a few thousand years old
given birth?

Say that God created all things in just six 24-hour days?


Since the Bible account of creation
does not conflict with conclusions scientific
about the universe's age.

Does not call their deductions
a mathematic mistake.

Too, scientifically the Bible does claim
as Christopher Columbus himself felt the same:

"There is One who dwells above the circle
of the earth,

And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers."

Along with, long ago known:
"Suspending the earth upon nothing"

even this later astronauts have shown.

These thoughts through Sabrina did again drone
as a skippy hip beat lingers
at first thought

maybe my phone...

Starts to dream...

Flight of the Bumblebee


her brain cells to stream...about how cross-pollination guarantees variety and thus healthier and more resilient plants.

Then grew she saw
mounds of black and red ants

causing her to flinch...

When Angels Fall - Dark Emotional Piano Beat | Prod. by Dansonn


dark and melodic
not as humanity screams
after not given an inch.

Why they think God doesn't exist

because of war and its stench....

Like what Micah had to endure
as in our day:

"The loyal one has perished from the earth;
Among men there is no one upright.
All of them lie in ambush for bloodshed.
Each hunts his own brother with a dragnet.
Their hands are expert at doing what is bad;
The prince is making demands,
The judge asks for a reward,
The prominent one makes known his desires,
And they work it out together.
Their best one is like thorns,
Their most upright one is worse than a thorn hedge.
The day of your watchmen and of your reckoning will come.
Now they will panic."

Also, prophesied a glorious occurrence:

"In the final part of the days,
The mountain of the house of Jehovah
Will become firmly established above the top of the mountains,
And it will be raised up above the hills,
And to it peoples will stream.

And many nations will go and say:
“Come, let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah
And to the house of the God of Jacob.
He will instruct us about his ways,
And we will walk in his paths.”

For law will go out of Zion,
And the word of Jehovah out of Jerusalem.

He will render judgment among many peoples
And set matters straight respecting mighty nations far away.
They will beat their swords into plowshares
And their spears into pruning shears.
Nation will not lift up sword against nation,
Nor will they learn war anymore.


They will sit, each one under his vine and under his fig tree,
And no one will make them afraid,
For the mouth of Jehovah of armies has spoken.


For all the peoples will walk, each in the name of its god,
But we will walk in the name of Jehovah our God
forever and ever.

“In that day,” declares Jehovah,
“I will gather the one who was limping,
And collect together the dispersed one,
Along with those I treated harshly.

I will make the one who was limping a remnant,
And the one far removed a mighty nation;
And Jehovah will rule as king over them in Mount Zion,
From now on and forever."^

She woke with a smile after laughter
when it dawns on her

"Yes!... A Video."

To describe the varieties in men
their thinking, dress, food, fashion

still on basic necessities
all mankind does depend

unlike animals surviving by instinct.
Man plans and conceives of love
he does think.

So why if intelligence
himself he does grant

surely our grand universe
even if not totally understood

in his own ignorance

would he not thank a Creator
and not of him rant

ungrateful
of all that he gave:

Oxygen, horizons
and a ransom he paid
to extend life eternal

our earth

Him to save?

Then I'll end with a quote:


In the mid-1800’s, British biologist Alfred Russel Wallace agreed with Charles Darwin on the theory of evolution by natural selection. But even this renowned evolutionist is said to have stated: “For those who have eyes to see and minds accustomed to reflect, in the minutest cells, in the blood, in the whole earth, and throughout the stellar universe . . . , there is intelligent and conscious direction; in a word, there is Mind.”

Yes, this scientist wrote.

So, we must concede:
God is a person, an individual.

Not a vague force devoid of personality,
floating aimlessly throughout the universe

without purpose. Originality.

He has thoughts,
feelings, goals.

Infinite power
wisdom daily majestically unfolds.

Explains why complexity in design
found everywhere in creation,
especially in living things

should not boggle. It refines.

And although, Him we cannot see
as He has created all physical matter.

Hence, these elements he cannot be.
Rather, he is a spirit, or nonphysical in nature.
Not limited by time.

Always has existed.

Will always exist.

Has a personal name.

Jehovah is He...

Divine. . . TO BE CONT'D
