Praise God from whom all blessings flow

Doing the night check
on a mild September night –
cattle all comfortable and content,
kittens still playing.
They will settle down after lights out.
Jupiter and Saturn towards the south,
high in a moonlit sky.
To the east, there, just above
the silhouette of trees, the moon.
Bright and two days past full,
tonight she has a companion,
a brilliant little dot – Mars!
They appear to be fast friends.
Everything is peaceful and still,
not a hint of breeze.
Even a bruised reed can safely stand,
a smouldering wick still glow –
below the tree line,
softly illuminated,
a silvery-white, thin, layer of mist praising
Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
We asked CC readers to send us pictures of cows, and they did! Enjoy these beautiful creatures.
