Against blackened skies,
A brilliant signature
Is written in light.
Thunder underscores
The inscription of His Name:
There are no questions.
Written with boldness,
It's the autograph of God:
Behold His power.
The entire sky
Is the Lord's writing surface:
Watch Him write His Name!
He is the Author:
He is the Creator: He
Writes His Name for you!

Wow, this piece is very moving. I will never look at the sky the same way again. You have truly been blessed by the hand of God... It's wonderful to see such positive work! Keep it up!

Not a bad bit of writing here, Karla. I like it. Thanks for your own comments on my work. I always wanted to do a sequence of related haiku myself. But after finishing one, I'd get bored and move on to another topic with the next haiku. I guess this is normal, but still...

this is good. However....first stanza second line only has six syllables, thereby rendering it un-haiku-like. Thought I'd point that out. Otherwise, I like it!
God's signature is on my heart. Excellant write.
