Sky

This vast sky so blue,

How big ‘tis I’ve no clue,

Even at noon and night,

Its always clear and in sight.

 

The bright sunshine makes it clear,

In wonder I watch it from here,

Cloudy it becomes when it rains,

In shades of gray itself it stains.

 

Adorned with clouds like vanilla scoops,

Flocks of birds in merriment swoops,

At times the rainbow appears in stripes,

Across the sky like ribbons it swipes.

 

How I wish to be like the sky,

Never it changes no matter why,

Spreads so wide, clear and calm,

Patience like it causes no harm…..

Beautiful piece of poetry.

Beautiful! I've never really thought of the sky like that. I've always been fascinated by it's beauty, but you went into so much detail. I loved it!

When you look into the sky it's like dreaming; it's like what we see in dreams. But, when it gets angry, it's scary and dark. I am glad that I live where the sun shines a lot, now. I used to lived in Painesville OH, which averages only 60 sunny days per year, because of Lake Erie. It was so gloomy living there!

In answer to your request to review some of mine; my last three, one of which is currently featured.

This is great and vivid writing here, almost, through the eyes of a child. Whom, I believe see the world much clearer than "us" adults. Beautifully penned!!

A beautiful poem. A clear warm day and free time to think. Always a good day in a life. I like the description in your words. A excellent poem.
