Back
I have seen many skies in my life.
Some bold and brackish....beaten back black and blue.
Some with the reckoning of a red dawn with sight so skewed.
I have seen many skies in my life.
With roaring might a frenzy of light so courageous that the Lord of light shines through.
I have seen many skies in my time.
Over and under rolling around skies... twisting , beckoning me forward into the misty eyes of fate.
But none the prettier as.........
