A Sky Cries

no sun can rise
when a lonely sky cries
this road’s collecting leaves 
like mind collects dreams

i hear the echoes
of tires skimming puddles 
as i slide in thoughts of you 

unsettled
in october’s rain

Nicely written, Sandy, a sad longing for love puts the soul in a dreary mood. All the best my friend. Hugs, John

Some mornings are dreary and damp but eventually the sun comes out and allows us to see the beauty around us. Like this poem, definitely beauty upon this page.
