Behind the Sky

Behind the sky lie fears we deny Behind the sky lurks the eyes that pry Behind the sky lives new worlds to try Behind the sky lights man's mythic lie Behind the sky causes hopes to fly Behind the sky feel what makes me cry Behind the sky opens as I die Behind the sky hides an answer why

What lies "behind" is the eternal, unanswered mystery to ponder until we enter the "beyond." Such a depth of philosophical wondering in your simple lines. You always bring me into that place "behind" the first meaning of your lines. Congratulations on your win! Enjoyed this wandering in your questions Greg! Blessings.

Sam, your philisophical mind is always asking the next question or the question behind the question. They say curiosity is the attribute of great artists. This is what propels your poetry. Thanks so much for turning your interest to my humble work. Your visits are special and most coveted.

Your style is unique, Greg. I guess your "mystery" is what lies behind the sky. Very interesting. Congratulations on your win! Best wishes, Carolyn

Andrea, that is a creative approach. For now though, only you can decide what is behind the sky. That will be your reality. Thanks for your remarks and visit.
