Poem in the Sky
I’m going to write this poem in the sky.
You’ll look up yonder and know it.
My words like clouds way up high,
I’ll be a skywriting poet!
First, I’ll train to pilot a plane,
but that might take me ages.
Maybe I’ll change my skywriting style
and imagine the sky on some pages!
You’ll look up yonder and know it.
My words like clouds way up high,
I’ll be a skywriting poet!
First, I’ll train to pilot a plane,
but that might take me ages.
Maybe I’ll change my skywriting style
and imagine the sky on some pages!
