Earth and Sky

I worried my way through life

until I learned to dance

in the skies.

Come, take my hand,

show me a little smile,

let's fly to the clouds

and glide across the heavens.

Oh how beautiful

is the blue-green earth

and the blue-blue sky

when we join the angelic choir and sing praises from afar.

Don't be too earth bound

my friends,

it's crazy down here,

fly fly fly

to the sky

and transform your vision.

A beautiful and lyrical poem, Hélène. I liked the idea of dancing in the sky, sounds like fun!
