the divorce on the second day

Once upon a time
the clouds were married to the earth.
and

a great distance separated them,
taking the full length of the second day.

So
clouds and earth
are actually halves
of each other.

Once upon a time
in desperation and determination,
the generousity of the clouds
swelled to such heaviness
that when provoked by peripheral temperatures,
its heart will burst

and hope

that the ground will receive
his ancient love.
sent in white envelopes new and fresh
holding loyal and fierce love
of the sky and the soil.

i wrote this in my distraction from studying at OC while looking out the window. yes (Erin), this is another poem written from nature (chuckle chuckle). it's pretty straight forward though..
and yes, i know that in the second day, the sky and the SEA were separated, but i wasn't looking at any body of water when i thought of this poem, so we'll dismiss that fact :)
