The Heavens Were All On Fire—W Shakespeare

            The sun —setting behind bare trees— seems to ignite the autumnal, cloud-laden skies. The heavens convey the impression of being on fire, extinguishable by neither the nearby flowing Peneus river nor the stormy, rainy weather ahead.

The glorious sunset occurs in the western part of the sky over Meteora, Greece. It is strongly reminiscent of the bible’s burning bush, as well as of the poem line:

“The heavens were all on fire, the earth did tremble”

—William Shakespeare (Henry Ⅳ)
