Blue Spring Sky

Earth’s painter has drawn

Blue spring sky

From dusk to dawn


Pastel of the night

Silver of the wind

Joy of the light

Wrinkles of your skin


Green of the bush

Hides a newborn fawn

Violet of the sagebrush

That a bird perches on


Love of the mother

Do you hear her heart

A world like no other

Do you see it fall apart


This place we hold dear

With colors and memories that were

But in the future

Will it still be here?


What will happen to the painters canvas

This wonderful world we call home

When the earth crashes above us
