Oh the colours you paint the sky

All the colours you paint the sky.

I sleep with the curtains open.

I like to look out before I fall asleep and first thing when I awake to see what picture you’ve painted.

A sky that’s so very dark with twinkling stars makes me think you’re feeling full of magic and hope.

A sky etched with pink and purples makes me think you’re playful, giddy and funfilled as you dance around the clouds on top toe.

A sky so grey and cloudy makes me worry you are sad, lonely even. I hope I’m wrong.

And a sky baby blue tells me you are peaceful, you are ok.

I often wish I was not confined to a bedroom to sleep. That I was not under the shelter of a warm home.

I long to sleep beneath the sky, on the cold hard ground. Closer to you. Beneath the huge sky that is your canvas. With you.

I don’t care about the weather. They are all amazing. Oh what an artist you are my love.

I wonder what picture you’ll paint for me tomorrow…blue, pink, grey or a multicolored rainbow.

It’s always a beautiful day.
