Looking To the Sky
LOOKING TO THE SKY IN THE DAYTIME CLOUDS SAIL BY
BIRDS FLYING, SINGING SONGS, IN TREE TOPS HIGH
LISTENING TO THE SOUNDS OF BIRDS AND BEES
QUITE A LOT OF ACTION HIGH UP IN THE TREES
AEROPLANES MARK AS THEY FLY THROUGH THE CLOUDS
CUTTING THEM UP, INTO PATTERNED SHROUDS
THE WAKE OF THE AEROPLANE LEAVING A GROOVE
FACES APPEAR IN THE CLOUDS AS THEY MOVE
AT NIGHT THE MOON SHINES OWLS HOOT IN THE DARK
AS THEY HUNT THEIR PREY LIKE A FLYING SHARK
SEE A FALLING STAR MAKE A WISH WHILE YOU CAN
CONSELLATIONS THAT LOOK LIKE A GIANT PLAN
MAPS IN THE SKY SHOWING TRAVELLERS THEIR WAY
NON OF THESE ARE VISIBLE DURING THE DAY
LOOKING TO THE SKY FOR INSPIRATION AND HOPE
THE SKY IS EVEN BIGGER SEEN THROUGH A TELESCOPE
THE WONDERS OF THE UNIVERSE UP ABOVE SO HIGH
MAKES YOU WONDER HOW IT IS AND THE REASON WHY
