Blue Sky White Clouds
I gaze upon the morning sky
The color I see is not blue
Rather blank and gray
Tons of cottons attached to it, glued
I see now, dear sky
has his beard growing up
An untouched canvas yet
Blue speckles of sky's skin
My eyes catching up
.
Flashbacks of my grandfather
His beard and his last smile
Soon, the sky will trim it away
City soaking wet in a beautiful day
Fluffy Clouds shifting to rain
Sky turning to blue, no more gray
About this poem
This is just a short poem about the sky and how can you see a cloudy sky as a blue man wearing a white beard.
