Poem: Instead of Sky
Instead of soil
layer the Earth with footprints
and ghosts.
Instead of sky
line it
with breath and
thunderous heartbeats.
Instead of void
fill the space in between
with everything you
cannot see but know
like wind, hope,
faith, and love.
Love, love, LOVE the last stanza! And sometimes that’s all we need: a little bit of hope, faith in something sprinkled with a dose of love as the wind gently washes over us. Okay, I’m babbling, but I do love the last stanza a lot. Great job with this piece, Mandie. 👍
Oh, thank you so much! I love reading your comments. 😉
You’re welcome, Mandie! And I love leaving them! 💙
