Blue Skies

Plans, dreams and promises made, but time too quickly taken away.
Now shades of blue, fading to grey.
A long braid, clever and wise.
“I see you in the skies,” where the heart cries.

I think of you in snowy hills, surrounded by penguins and seas of blue.
Oh, how I wish this couldn’t be true.
A lasting friendship, I surmise.
“I see you in the skies,” where love perpetually defies.

A radiant, remarkable soul, a masterpiece in every bind.
Never afraid to speak her mind.
One of the most heartbreaking goodbyes.
“I see you in blue skies,” where your memory lies.
