The City In The Sky

Once when I was five years old or so
my father told me this story
in a distant place a long time ago
there was a city in all its glory
this place was hidden up high in the sky
and within its walls there lived its sire
a wise old wizard with just one eye
able to fulfill whatever a man could desire.

Once when I was six years old or so
I wished to reach the city in the sky
I had only one wish in mind, I know
"I wish my father had said goodbye".

You get the feeling of a nice story about a six year old or something but the last line is so full of sadness!
It's great, how this poem flows and the tone is fitting, too.
This one is good again
And the rhyming is fantastic!

Wow short but beautiful. Well put together, the rhyming scheme was done gracefully without sounding corny, and the message was intriguing. Well done :)
