Looking at the sky poem
Enchanting clouds are rolling
Blue cloth of heaven
Is their place
They know not much
Of life and glory
Pain and deceit
Or joy and feeling sorry
They are just there
Existing, being
It is the now
In a moment they are gone
Just like the ocean sand
Picked up and placed
Into another space
And as for us?
With dreams
And faith
And sorrow
How complicated
To be seeking
Being in the moment
Just to look out
Into these clouds
Hear the birds
And smile
With a mind relieved.
I wrote this poem right after having coffee on a balcony and watching the white clouds calmly and slowly move across the blue sky. It’s very important to take such moments in life.
