The Sky Is Falling Poem by Sandra Fowler

The Sky Is Falling

Rating: 5.0


It is as if white clouds have come to earth.
The sky is falling. Do you mind, my friend?
Moon sheets echo a shining out of time.
Tree limbs cripple the cadence of snow's song.

Eyes tell me that you pity the cold glass.
You write a letter to me in its frost.
Your words weave me a coat of chimney smoke.
That shadow is the warmth I hold most dear.

The sky is falling. Do you mind, my friend? Moon sheets echo a shining out of time. Tree limbs cripple the cadence of snow's song....scintillating expression dear Sandra! It's a fascinating poem.

Thanks for your most recent 'poetic comment'. As regards above poem 'I don't mind at all! ' It is a real positive joy to read and a true work of art.
