If Not For Sky

"if not for sky"

if not for sky would there be light
light from the moon that guides
guides us through silence of darkness

yet if not for sky would there be warmth
warmth from the sun that radiates
radiates from early dawn to dusk of night

too if not for sky would there be rainbows
rainbows that fill far and wide with color
color that fully spreads beyond the sea

still if not for sky would there be life
life bestowed to all for peace and harmony
harmony to forever shine upon mankind

Ink Empress Date: 10/31/2023 3:30:00 AM Wow how have i not read your poems before? This is absolutely so beautiful and moving! So touching and soulful how you’ve written in such an introspective manner , questioning all that which is around, if there was no life or sky as in all that which exists, there will be no moon nor rainbow, and sometimes we forget to appreciate whats around too. You have a very deep mindset and your quill bleeds such profound and impeccable beauty that deserves all the accolades! You truly are a fave for me Login to Reply
