the Sky

the Sky

A Poem by RJ

It’s a kind of bitter cold you can only find in the mountains

You can see it, feel it, and even taste it

It’s on a night like this that I look to the sky in wonder

The sky is full and clear on a night like tonight

 

Summer has gone and past

The heat has floated away

No, it is time of falling to winter

The leaves fall from the trees

It’s a truly beautiful site to see

 

I gaze upon the sky

And see as far as the eye can see

I can see the stars and moon

It’s a magnificent dance in the sky

There are so many blinking and sparking at you

They are ever so bright and shiny

 

I see what time and space is

For it is a sight to see like no other

For the sky holds your eyes in amazement

It is like a pool in the sky ever so reflecting to the surface

 

I dream upon the stars in this sky

Oh, how the cosmic rays fall on other planets

I see what some can’t believe

For it is a colonoscope of twinkling flaming stars

Ever so far away yet you feel as though you can touch them

 

I feel my mind as I see the skylight ever so bright

It comes upon a full moon

 

The sky is alive and full of life ever so changing

The sky at least has not

for what beauty one’s mind can see is beyond words

it is beyond comprehending to take the mind from this place

 

to see what others haven’t

To rejoice in self with the gifts man sight can only see

This is of what virtue the sky has for all.
