Sky Gazer - Day 42
Inspired by a poem called Losing Battle by @figuringoutsrn. Started out with the idea of describing different types of sky gazers but instead decided to follow one person through a whole day.
Sky Gazer
A glance, a glimpse, as he hurries through his day,
Looking for signs of bad weather on its way.
No other reason to turn to the sky.
Sunglasses blocking the light to each eye.
A peep, a sneak, hoping that no one will see,
Longing to keep gazing from under a tree.
A wish to be free from a living hell-hole,
But tied to a desk that imprisons his soul.
A pause, a look, admiring the view
A bench with lunch and nothing to do
The warmth shines down, massages the soul,
At least for now, the whole world seems whole.
A gaze, a stare, with nothing to lose
The blues, the reds, and all sorts of hues
For time stands still if you give it a chance
So you can peruse the universe dance.

Free birds plow through the sky.
We tie ourselves on the floor
we look up and
We dream of being free of
fly under the universe
Great craft with this rhyming peace. You achieved the sense of music. Great job, FS:)
