The sky is painted of heavy ash
The sea is filled with thickest blood
With sea and sky do the horizons clash
With that of my eyes do thy senses flood

Where the heavens meet earth and earth to sky
The morning dawn of suns in reddish hue
There above that earth and sea do they cry
But here they no not of the coming new

For dawning in the east is that of fire
Neither earth nor sky nor sea can withstand
That of the heat of holiest pyre
Nothing can compare to holiest band

That earth and sky and sea will be no more
That anger of the earth does not implore

This is a great sonnet, with the right rhythm and rhyme scheme, so great job! I noticed the word 'no', and i think that you mgith have meant it to be 'know'. Hope this helps!! :)
