They Were My Bluest Skies

They were my bluest skies where my fantasies thrived, where dreams continued to rise... to reach luminous clouds of pride. Seasons drastically transformed their colors from bright to dark... as the playful sun rearranged everyone of them with a spark. They were my bluest skies I fixed my long gaze on... to foretell joy or demise with an unexpected sign. Still my advanced days have the incredible display of vitality of those I spent in the agitated, cold waters I braved; and if courage ever dimmed, I would rely on agility... now, many more days await me, unless my fortress is razed.

Sometimes I feel like "my bluest skies" and the joyful days on which I saw them are behind me too, Andrew. Surely, this does not describe you. So much wisdom and beauty in your writing tells me you have a long way to go before you go gently into that good night. Bravo! A favorite for me! Love, Carolyn
