The Sky The sky watches over the grass Bare to filled, yellow to green, alive to dead The sky watches over the people Car crashes, first dates, school bells ringing The sky watches over the trees Falling leaves, shifting colors, branches snapping off The sky watches over the eggs Cracking open into a baby bird that flies not to return The sky watches over the flowers From a little seed to a yellow explosion to puffs on the wind The sky watches over the Earth Landmasses changing, oceans drying up, change, change, change The sky can only watch Helpless to stop, save, continue, help The sky is nothing and everything and something all at once The sky can only watch, unchanged, as pieces fall into place.
