I've spent
a lot of time
looking down
So much so
that I'd forgotten
how big the sky
really was
But I've been
looking up again
and I've seen
wonders
A great blue sea
hanging weightless
above my head
Clouds passing along
in migration
or filling up the sky
to roar
Stars dotting the night
like dewdrops in the morning
And pitch black voids
that threaten to swallow you whole
All these sights above me
serve to humble me
To remind me the world is big
and to remind me I am small
But when I see them
I see magic
in the flesh
Because the sky's
so beautiful
when I'm looking
with you
