Our Sky

Look up to the sky
Until you begin to wonder why

Wonder why we grow, be, then die
All of these answers, up in our sky

Dream and believe that you can fly
One day, further than our sky

Keep your head held up on-high
Keep on smiling, stay focused, don't sigh

Look up to our sky

Fly high

Further than our sky

Hi, Jonathan, Welcome to Poetry soup I hope you enjoy the community. You'll find friendly poets who are ready to support and give positive feedback. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Other than that I will read, enjoy and comment with positive feedback. Remember, keep posting, stay in touch, TAP my shoulder when you have a new poem. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. You might find my support addictive. I've been a SOUP Poet for 6 years. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. I'm from Texas, How about you? Tell me a little about your poetic skills. I will enjoy following you and your poetry :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
