The choir wore white robes

The choir wore white robes,

spotless, bright white, bathed

in light, moving, swaying

together, giving the impression

of light shimmering, moving,

swaying, to some unheard music,

an orchestration from an unknown

choir director, raising and lowering

invisible arms.

The choir wore white robes,

and began to sing in voices

of white light, cool white,

shimmering sound,

moving sound,

swaying.

They sang in white robes,

and the skies opened

in brilliant red.
