A Painting of Sky

 

I paint great things in the sky;

An airplane flying high, or

A seagull and his red eye.

In the distance – white clouds passing by,

Lining up like a good rhyme.

Above – anchor-shaped white trails

Painted by planes waving goodbye,

To some lands left behind

And their antheap harbours, embarking into the blue dye.

Beyond – skeleton-white, the half-moon lies.

Below – blue waves bleaching pebbles into white;

Their sound shapes the image I see,

And this painting above the sea;

My brush is a pen, and there are great things in the sky.
