The sun sets
With its lavishing colors of orange purple and pink tones
in the sky
The crescent moon shinning brightly
Up
in the sky
A owl is sitting silently on a tree branch keeping watch
As the sun is done setting
The sky is pitch black
The stars are twinkling high up
in the sky
It’s quiet, no sounds to be heard
As I lay down on the ground
Watching, the stars dancing,
in the sky
I feel, a rain drop fall, on my head
Up
In the sky
I see, a flashing bulb of lightning crash, down to the ground,
a few seconds later I hear, the rumbling sound of thunder,
I look back up
at the sky
Then a big flash of light comes down, just inches from where
I’m laying,
I hear a crackling sound of thunder,
within a few seconds a bolt of lightning crashes, down on me
I look back up
At the sky
A beam of light
High up
In the sky
Comes down on me
A voice
I recognize, tells me to come
it’s my time
To be
Up in the sky
For eternity
About the Creator

I’ve always had a interest in poetry since I took a creative writing class in high school. Writing poetry is my safe place where I can either get positive or sometimes negative energy out by my writing of poetry.

This is beautiful, Jennifer. You and I have a ways to go (hopefully) before we're in the sky. Such great imagery! I just love how this one flows.
