Look around you

I walk across a meadow,
Almost empty but for me,
As I see a white dove,
Perched in a Dogwood tree

That struck me as odd, but no more
Than the scene I saw below.
A  lion on the right, a lamb on the left
Yet no hostility was shown.

The lamb and lion spoke as one
and my heart skipped a beat,
saying, "Look around you,
and let us be a lamp unto your feet."

I looked around curiously,
at that wonderful place.
Then I gasped and realised that
it was soon to be the end of days.
