Red Sun Phenomenon

A Red Sun in the Heavens

I’ve often watched a sunset

And marvelled at the view

Of clouds of pink and purple

And colors of every hue!

But what I saw last evening

Was a sun that was red! Instead!

I’ve never seen a sun like that

Hang suspended overhead.

Some said it was humidity

Some said it was just heat

Some said it was all that smoke

But I just thought it neat!

For I was watching a red balloon

Hung out there in the sky

An ornament for us to view

Our heavens to beautify.

Amid all our strife and conflicts

We need to sense delight

To know that life’s worth living

And our world can still be bright.

So that red sun last evening

Was a sign from God above

That even when we misbehave

He won’t withhold His love!
