Looking out at the clear blue sky
Waiting for grey clouds to engulf it
Allow crystal clear droplets to fall
And dance with the fishes in the ocean
Watching the waves crash
Onto the pearl white sand
As seagulls soar the skies
Escaping the tragedy of reality
Admiring the beauty of the sunset
As the colors of the sky entangles
With clouds to form an illusion
One that stuns my soul, and captures my heart
Without you beside me,
To adore the beauty of nature
Sunsets are painted black and grey
And raindrops diffuse into the still silence
So I wait all alone in this lighthouse
For angels to bring me to you
And reunite us in heaven
Where we’d dance in the puffy clouds
To the melodies our memories can bring
~

Wow
I would have to say that my favoreite stanza would be......
Without you beside me,
To adore the beauty of nature
Sunsets are painted black and grey
And raindrops diffuse into the still silence

Best stanza to me was ..... (drum roll):
"Without you beside me,
To adore the beauty of nature
Sunsets are painted black and grey
And raindrops diffuse into the still silence"
It's nice to share the beauty of nature with someone. It's nice to share everything with someone. I can understand why things would turn black and grey on you. It sometimes makes you feel lonely, and the world around you stops.
I think this is a nice little poem! I liked it! Thanks
