You said we are
never too far
until we are
under the same sky.
“You are my sun,
I am your moon.”
But then why did
we end so soon?
As blue clouds
turns to gray,
I’ll try to keep
my tears at bay.

In response to dVerse‘s Quadrille #18: Clouds by kim881 who wrote about Busting Clouds.
Here’s how to Quadrille:
– Write a poem of exactly 44 words, including the word cloud.
– Put your poem on your blog and link back to this post.
– Link it up to our Mr. Linky.
– Visit other blogs. Enjoy some amazing poets. Comment. Come back later this week and write another one, and visit some more. Comment some more. Create as many poem clouds as you please. I’ll be reading all week.
So sad when your sky overcasts… those clouds are sad.
