Poetry “The Same Sky”

Working nights while in the desert, there was often an numbing calm.  For a moment or two, looking up at the sky, I would speak to my wife, hoping she could some how hear my words.  Living in close quarters with several others, privacy is at a premium.  For that one moment, in that one place, I would silently speak to the sky, hoping that my wife was also looking up at the sky.  It’s funny how the sky looks the same, not matter how far away you are apart from loved ones.

Thank you so much for taking a look!
