Analysis of Evening sky



Are you the one for me?

I wait the entire day
When I can be with you;
Hurriedly i finish chores
Rushing to meet you

How do i gauge your mood?
Each day is a different scene;
Though it's not my fault,
Oft you tend to be mean.

But....
I love it when you are clear
White and bright and sunny;
I love it when you are blue
Giving me, of your mind, no clue;

I don't mind when you are angry
Red and pink - a theophany
I don't mind when you are heavy
Greys and black are many

This evening you confuse me,
Jumping moods every minute;
U show me grey, red and blue
What should I, of you, construe!!!

About this poem

I wrote these lines after my usual walk in the evenings on my terrace. The myriad hues that the weather changes created was the inspiration. Hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did penning it....
