Oh Skies

Oh skies let me touch you Give me an assurance that tomorrow Shall be a sunny day; Give me a little sign That after all this disillusionment I shall live in your umbrella Oh skies smile at me Do not you sulk at me; My soul is cold, my heart is hurt- A smile and I shall get warm A smile and I shall feel wonderful, Oh skies. Oh skies give me a hope to live on So when the world Shall break under my feet I shall call you to my rescue I shall call you to my help Oh skies give me the hope to live on. Oh skies keep me in your watch So whenever I do stray To limits forbidden by natural law Oh skies let me be yours, My soul, my heart, all I give you.

I think you should look at the form kryielle, it's a form which uses repetition [as you have] and calls to mind prayer...I think this would be an excellent kyrielle with some tweaking, as you know I LOVE starting lines with "Oh," to me it shows JOY. Light & Love

When I am feeling down or destitute, Honesty, I often look to the skies and engage in a conversation with God to seek guidance. Nice work! Love, Carolyn
