I’m grateful to share that my poem, Blue Skies Wet My Eyes, is now available at MasticadoresUSA. Thanks to Gabriela Marie Milton, and the team at MasticadoresUSA for their continued support, and for publishing this piece.
Blue skies wet my eyes
I can see clearly now
Clouds are few
but billowing
as I rest
a halo over my head
The sun shines through me
brightly
I drift in and out of grace and fear
the sun goes down, stars come up
now
That you’ve returned.
the storms thrashing
lighting the dark sky
I fall to the earth’s crust
where seeds are sewn
The hollow husks
blow in circles,
chickens pecking
at my feet….
I would be honored if would go here and read the rest of my poem.

Thanks Cindy. Well done. There is an old song, sung well by Ella Fitzgerald and Willie Nelson, called “Blue Skies.” Here is the first stanza written by Brian Wayne Transeau.
“Blue skies smilin’ at me
Nothin’ but blue skies do I see
Bluebirds singin’ a song
Nothin’ but bluebirds all day long
Never saw the sun shinin’ so bright
Never saw things goin’ so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you’re in love, my how they fly”
Oh I’m glad you like my piece Keith, thanks so much . That is a beautiful song. I’ll have to google it. Thanks for sharing it! 💖

Super job, Cindy, even used a few song lyrics to add a layer of meaningful depth. 🙂
Thanks so much Marsha. Oh the classic, “I can see clearly now the rain has gone”. If it wasn’t a published piece, that would have been a great addition to the post. 💖🙏
I think its fine to use parts of pieces as long as you give credit. Authors of books and plays do it all the time. 🙂
I so agree with that Marsha.. it’s funny I didn’t actually think of it at the time of writing it?! 💖
Seriously? It screamed at me. I loved the song, though. 🙂
I’m brain dead at the
Moment ! 😂
Plagiarism maybe 🤔 oops
You’re not brain dead. That’s part of creativity.
oh there we go!!! I knew I adored you for a reason! 💖💖😂💖
I meant to place my comment here, but left it on the MasticadoresUSA site, instead. Whoops! Anyway, suffice to say, “Blue Skies Wet My Eyes” is a beautiful poem, dear Cindy ~ thank you for sharing! 💖
Oh I’m so thrilled you did Phil. I like to make sure we give credit where credit is do over at MasticadoresUsa and I’m sure they appreciate that as do I. I’m thrilled you enjoyed it Phil. Thank you always for your kind comment! 💖💖😘
Congratulations, Cindy.
Thanks so much Tim! 💖

A beautiful connection to the earth is evident in your poem, poetess Cindy. ✨ Will click and read the remaining lines. 😊
That is such a satisfying comment to hear Michele so thank you for reflecting those words back to me my friend. The truth is, I still have to pinch myself as I never intended on writing poetry but they just keep emerging. Thanks truly for that and going there as well my friend. 💖💖😘
You are welcome, Cindy. Maybe it is a time of reflection and deeper connection for many people. Poetry is a beautiful vehicle for both. 💖
Yes, that is so true. Poetry sums up nicely what lies in our hearts and souls and is often easier to digest in our busy world. 💖
