The Blue Sky
In the days of immemorial yore The sky was radiant with colours galore Violets and reds; shimmering golden Greens of the seas; a little yellow stolen Glistening with reflections of milieu Amassing laughter, every fresh hue One day, red walked away; lost A friendship had swiftly turned to dust Ensuing, the green slowly faded away A dream had turned a bitter runaway Love left today, and took joy along The yellow followed too; it didn't belong One by one, the colours slovenly left Tearful sky watching, thoughts adrift "It rains when you're sad, did you know? Oh look, at the horizon. It's a rainbow!" Sky watched aflame, lustrous arch agleam Colours, now memories on mind's seams The sky simpered solemn, at his expanse blue "Can't you see, love! Now it's all just you" Shades of yourself, brilliant and aglow And they're always close- memories and rainbows
