Sky, I Want To Paint You Bright

I want to paint the sky such that it may be the highlight of my every day. I want to paint the sky so picturesque such that the pre-school mistress wont have to paint chats but just point to the sky I want to paint the sky so haphazardly to represent the many peculiar personalities I want to paint the sky bright such that night cannot conquer the brightness thereof I want to paint the sky so affectionately such that those that seek love find it up there I want to paint the sky calmly so that the peace seekers may find peace I want to paint the sky alone to show the lonely that many people are alone I want to paint the sky. I wish it was drawn near to me. The sky is too distant and musky, the sky is too luminous yet so nebulous I want to paint the sky I fancy it bright and radiant Draw nearer Sky. Sky, I am painting you bright.
