Love Not Those That Set
by Farhana Huda
USA
 

She looked at the sky and fell in love with the clouds
She looked at the rain, and loved the showers
She looked at the stars, and resolved

But she loves not those that set.

She looked at the sea she fell in love with their reflections
She looked at the fields, and loved the flowers
She looked at sun, and resolved

But she loves not those that set.
And she could not look at their Maker.
And she loves not those that set.
But she loves in the sky, a sun that sets

So love the One for which the sky was made to submit.
So love the One for whose reflection the grand sea was created to magnify.
So love not the stars, and the clouds and the flowers.
Love whose mercy rains over them, reviving this varied creation to adore Him

So love not those that set.
