What the Sky Sacrificed

What the Sky Sacrificed

 

The blue, almost transparent sky.

The grass, so different, with its green silkiness

Its rigid lines

Can they touch?

Would they dare?

Could the sky use its fluffy cloud-like hands

And reach out to the stern grass

Touch the greenness of the grass

The bugs eating at it

Eating away

And could the grass touch the sky?

Can it grow so high?

Reaching its maximum size

Reaching out to the wonderful sky

With its bipolar attitude

And difficult emotions

Blue one day

And pale the next

Happily, orange another

And angry red forever

Joined by the moon

And sun

They see

They are the eyes

And the eyes are they

And if the grass

Touched the sky

He risks so much

For they sacrifice their lives

Mere humans survive

But love holds, eternally

Unless a price is paid

Can they touch?

Would they dare?
