Blue Sky World

~Deana J. Tavares

Behind closed eyes

The sun

Blood red

Glowing orb

Filtered through

Cells

Epidermal

Layer

It penetrates

Wind jostles

The memory

With a blustery song

Weaving through

Silence

It infiltrates

Touches all the spots

Where sun

Radiates

The wind telling

The depth

Of the atmosphere

The vastness

Of days

Blowing into

Other days

Every tree sways

Within its own breeze

Sings a unique song

Of how

The wind

Weaves

Between its leaves

It’s where

The shadows

End

And the light

Descends

Or where

The light

Descends

And where

The shadows end

Or

Where the light

And shadows

Side by side

Blend

It’s where the shadows

Return

And where

The light

Blends

Where bark

And branch

Tar and grass

Meld

Again

Inside

A blue

Sky

World
