Soul Serenity

A field of grass converts into a bed of distress when I glance at the infinite sky The clouds sailing like white ships in the ocean of the heavens guided by the blow of the universe I snap a photo of this beauty with my eyes and I shut them tight The image is a seed and my mind is the soil In the future, when you want to start a fire again, I will close my eyes and stare at the sky My skin will burn and I will melt My ashes dissipate into the atmosphere carried by the wind but my soul will evaporate into the promised land with guidance from the Sun

Nice tone and imagery...I can almost "feel" your poem and sense its message. I like the title, too, it almost kind of rolls off the tongue like water.
