The sky is blue

Because it looks down upon

All of humanity

The sky is blue seems so simple, yet blue to me is sadness, troublesome... and it is reality...so many complexities to look down upon...Humanity is suffering in so many ways....a big divide between rich and poor....our social justice system is in dire need of repair...and I could mention many other wrongs that the must look down upon....reality

If I had to look down on humanity I might be sad and blue as well. There is so much destruction and chaos across the globe in all directions for a multitude of reasons mainly power and greed

Well said, I feel the weight of these words.

I like that. It is brooding, ill-humored, dry, great write!

[Brad Dehler]

Thank you for your input. Lol ill-humored. yes indeed

[1809 Black Plague December]

you are most welcome, Dear, I found it enlighting. Truth, is it is metaphysics. A question, that is so outloud. It is a grreat mortifying sketch of what, and why the world is not what we want it to be, or maybe the note is good. :) ---Maynard, happy New year!

[Amanda Reynolds]

Wow, so simple yet so true!

[Brad Dehler]

Thank you Amanda :)

[Twilight]

Simple but poignant truth, is conveyed by those few lines. An age old reality, as old as the human race itself; with no obvious or instant remedy on the horizon...

[Brad Dehler]

Absolutely! And into that horizon we go....

[Pete]

love this kind of personification,
you've got going on here.


Says so much with so little,
very well done..
It's the kind of thing, that sticks to you,
long after you read it.

[Brad Dehler]

Very kind of you to say! Your compliment is sticking with me. :)))

[light and ashes]

:)) happy to hear it

[Chris Shaw]

Aye, it has much to be sad about. Just look at the carnage and conflict our species is responsible for. No wonder the sky is blue. Lovely piece of brevity which opens up to much thought. Well done Brad.

Chris

[Brad Dehler]

Thank you so much Chris. I really appreciate you

[John the Baptist]

Perhaps the sky needs an anti-depressant.

[Brad Dehler]

True. That would take us
