POEMS

The Sky is Beautiful

The sky is beautiful.
Rainbows trapped in every cloud;
Every drop of water.
Cotton candy fluff
And the smell of fresh cherries
And huckleberries.
Tree branches growing up
To the sky.
Because the sky is beautiful.
Memories of cloud gazing.
I promise.
There are dragons locked inside the towers
Of the atmosphere.
The first time on a plane
And the blankets of grass and ants of buildings are real.
Astonishing.
Because the sky is so beautiful.
Take me to see the sunset and stay with me until the sunrise.
I want to watch the sun become laced through your eyes.
The taste of your lips is the fire and passion the sun holds within itself.
And it's beautiful.
The night
Coated in galaxies and stars
Every nerve excited and sparking.
Your own universe forming
In your body.
You are the galaxies
And stars
And sunrises
And sunsets
And blankets
And dragons
Because you are beautiful.
