Big Sky

A big sky
Stretching
From me
To you
Covering me
And you
Covering us
Though miles
Stand between
Where you and lie
We lie
Side by side
Under a sheet of blue
A blanket
Of cloud
Pulled tight
Over our sleeping forms
Drawing us
Into its woolly embrace
Carrying us
Side by side
Into a dream
Sharing
In its blissful passing
Our hopes
Fears
And loves
And love
Under
The big sky
