City Lights

Sometimes we miss the real beauty of the world because of the distractions we've put into it. This is just a poem about our lives.

City Lights 

We live in a world with sunsets 

blazing 'cross the sky,

And fields of fragile wildflowers

kissed by the breeze as it goes by.

At night we can glance up at the stars

and count the constellations,

or sink into the moonlight

who's shined on us for generations.

Mother nature loves us dearly,

for she gave us such extravagant sights.

But we get lost in living,

blinded by the city lights.

Very nice and truth poem. I use to live in the countryside, but I always felt traped. Now i live in a city and it's wonderful.

So true, Annie. I, myself, hate city lights and much prefer sunsets and stars. Darn light pollution. But well written.
