Big Skies

I need big skies
and starry nights
where dreams take flight

I need vast lands
opening space within
where new stories begin

I need big seas
and wild waves
where adventure finds a way

I need alternative music
chorus of birdsong
where harmony belongs

written for dVerse
writing a 44 quadrille
incorporating the word alter

Happy Earth Day!

  1. I like the pace of this poem, which is enhanced by the repetition, and they are all the things I need too. I especially love the ‘opening space within/where new stories begin’.

  5. Anything less is clautrophobia. Maybe that's why all nightmares I've had have been in confined spaces?
