Everything that is beautiful is not always good but everything that is good is always beautiful


There is a trumpet in the blue sky
Along with the head of a unicorn
And as the wind blows in west again
The wand sways in a circle and stops
Now there an elephant head on a car

With every gust of wind
I see a new picture in the sky
With no trace of history
But the same clounds mangled up
As they come in path of the carefree wind

I wonder how the birds see them
Always flying close to them
Do they see the wonders of those clouds
Or just the big white cotton balls

Now I see the black clouds
my hair obstructing my view
they still move but seems heavy and dark
with no trace of history
with wonder but with horror
I try to figure what they say

They seem to shout
But don’t know what to say
So I watched and watched
To see what I could see

They seem to show me something
But the light is too bright
So I listened and listened
To hear watch I could hear

They seemed tried
When a drop fell on my head
And when I looked up
It filled my eyes too

Standing in this heavy rain
I must seem like a total r*****
But me and them
are having a little heart to heart

Words are tools; to educate, support, mend, and express. They shouldn't be used to break down each other's minds... they should be used to fill the empty spaces in our heads with insight, in order to see what most eyes can't.

My pleasure! :D

Something about this poem brought me a sense of wonder and peace, as well as evoked a childlike curiousity within me. Maybe it's the simple yet eloquent way you described looking at clouds, or just remembering staring at the clouds as a kid, butit brought back good feelings. Nice submission! :D
