Ciao!
This one was written for a poetry competition a while back. We were given the line : "Close your eyes and spread your wings". Then we were told to 'go wild'. And this is what was forged in the wilderness :
Close your eyes
And spread your wings
It isn't too hard to fly
Up in the air
And out of reach
Let the clouds
Just pass you by
Red clouds full of anger
Thunder clapping an enchanting beat
Mesmerizingly frantic
To the ears an amazing treat
Green clouds full of odour
Like from a witch's pot
Tickling your nostrils and pulling you in
Even though your brain says you should not
Brown clouds filled with liquid
Like a liquid chocolate stream
A dream come true for every chocoholic
Whose mouth has been watering
Since Willy Wonka and the chocolate dream
White clouds full of fluff
Like snow or cotton balls
Silky on your skin
And arousing to touch
Invisible clouds filled with nothing
Like a blank canvas under an artist's brush
Waiting for your eyes to pass it by
So that your imagination
May fill this void
That has left this world dry
Come back down to earth
But don't close your wings
Cuz that is when life will die
Invisible clouds filled with nothing
Like a blank canvas under an artist's brush
Waiting for your eyes to pass it by
So that your imagination
May fill this void
That has left this world dry
Come back down to earth
But don't close your wings
Cuz that is when life will die
We need to live
We need to FLY
We need to FLY
