Humps of Camels Upside Down

The sky turns grey and a bird sings a song. Sun is hiding truth and lies;right and wrong. Clouds drift into shapes imagination does create. A butterfly smiles knowing the caterpillar’s fate. The branches of a tall tree wave goodbye. A nest feels safe for the bird learning to fly. Moments unwrapped like a gift to treasure forever. Loved ones are a blessing and all the times together. Round and round the merry-go-round we go. Darkness...we wait for a new day to show. Little girl giggles as her pink bubblegum is blown. An old man walks slowly towards sparkling hope unknown. At the beach the waves roar a lullaby, Sandcastle of dreams built strong to the sky. Once upon a time in a field of dreams and stories, Past and present creations of both pain and glories. Night turns to day and day turns to the night, Shadows tiptoe to and away from light. Some smiles on faces are suddenly upside-down frowns. Life can be a masquerade of some uncertain clowns. Gift unwrapped with ribbons yellow and pink. Gallery of paintings that make you think. Holding hands watching cotton clouds drift across the sky. Sitting on a red bench thinking many questions why. Footprints in sand oozing between my toes. Snowman created and nowhere to go. Humps on a camel traveling amongst the desert sand. Sand dunes caress sky of a forever searching land. A baby is born to live on this earth. Waving bye; death becomes memory’s birth. Bouquet of daisies on a table covered with lace. Children roll down a hill full of laughter as they race. Tick tock the time on this earth stands still. Tick tock another year waiting to fill. Ups and downs;roller coaster ride of life to explore. Sunset, sunrise-each starry night never seen before. Caterpillar crawls against the very cold,cruel ground. Soon to realize that butterfly moments will be found. Listen to the world’s silent screams. Dare to cradle hopes and sweet dreams. I stand still and I see a bird dance across the sky. I close my eyes and I see hope with wings that will fly. Yesterday and today walk together hand in hand. There is a shadow of light and darkness in this land.
