Blue Sky

Sunlight glints amongst the leaves
-Colors the breeze
Coats shades of green on life
Faraway, in the sky, so bright.

Forever -stretched away so high
Blue sky ...I
Never could quite touch
Though I've wanted to -so much

Birds so close to clouds-fly
In my sky-whilst I
Hate wings I wasn't granted
To hard ground -feet planted

Grass at my feet roll
Welcome breezes bold
To cause you like ocean waves to go
Back and forth in flow.

Summer sky be there -desired breaths of air
From me never depart -stay always blue and fair
As fickle as love not gained
When my unsung life is slain
