Sunny Skies

In the absence of complication,

trials and tribulations become distant memories.

Above sapphire skies delight sanguine eyes -

inspiring forthcoming musings of the mind.


Then I'm able to unlock my imagination,

I think of a world where hate doesn't exist.

Where people are genuinely kind-

and work for the betterment of mankind


In the distant horizon, I'll see sunny skies,

even when dark clouds are present.

I am calm because I await a lovely rainbow,

signifying all will be fine as the storm passes.

I agree w/the other talented poets/poetesses ... such an uplifting poem of unity and peace, Alexis. This tranquil inked beauty was elegantly quill expressed. Another mighty fine poem from your gracious pen. Love and peace forever.
