Shades Of Sky

Have seen the moon go through changes
Phased, eight times and blue.

Have seen the stars reign in night sky
And beam their lights on you.

Have seen the sun give warmth of shine
And rise up "all" each morn.

Have seen the clouds that cover all
When shadowed thoughts are born.

All in all and now and then
When eyes lift to the skies,
The moon, the stars, the sun, the clouds
In dreams, are made by I.

When moon does talk to heart of me
It swells the love inside,
And opens up for all to see
And nothing, can I hide.

When stars do talk and glow my life
I twinkle with the feel,
Of happiness when dreams have turned
The fantasy to real.

When sun does talk, it's warmth of skin
And tans my pale to dark,
Energized, my mind becomes
A difference seen, quite stark.

When clouds do speak and blanket lay
My days then shadowed, be.
Hence, hoping for that gentle breeze
To float them out to sea ...

The light of moon and stars and sun
Shines bright to lift me high.
But when those clouds come drifting in ...
That darkness, shades my eyes.

Your line breaks were done very very well, I love the way it started out with the two stanzas and then went to four, it all fit. The words were stunning, this is classic poetry, in my opinion, done at it's best!

Maureen,
where did I come from?
well I showed up about 50 years ago!

No, seriously, I've been a member of Passions for about 5 or 6 months, but I don't remember reading any of your poetry and I'm sorry about that, I feel so in tune with it and I had to respond and tell you how much I enjoy your natural rhymn and feel for the craft.
