Everyone looks at the sky;

Clouds gather, cluster up high.

Light that has blinded our eyes

Instantly brought down to size.

Peeping from out of the sides,

Sun and its shyness subsides.

Everyone looks from the sky.

Acrostic

    Cherish the people around you because they make life worth living. Make the most of every day and live it to the fullest because we never know how much time we have left. I wish you good health, a bright future and a happy life. May you always be surrounded by love and support. 🙏🙏🙏

  • Oooo, everyone looks from the sky. That kinda seems unsettling to me. Like imagine people actually looking down at us from the sky. Creeeeeeeepy, lol. Loved your Acrostic!
