at least the clouds are
smiling back

they have faces and
souls
and they stare back from their
blue canvas,
down on his dirty, snot-smeared face

It’s a warm
sunny day
but the
bottom of the shallow, dry well
is cold and full
of critters

Well, no problem. The sky is so
pretty with all its smiling
faces that he
won’t even cry. He’ll stay there
and look up. Still waiting
for mother to return and
pick him up

Still waiting

Smiling back at the clouds

Still waiting

  1. Seems like he’s been waiting a while and might have to wait, well, forever! This one has a punch from a desperate situation—she may never come back! Still, the sky is nice, until the horror creeps in. Good Story telling!

  2. My former boyfriend died 2019 and sometimes when I ´m waiting for the bus or anything daily I can look up at the sky and say hi and wave with my hand. And its like he stands among the clouds beside his motorcycle just smiling and waving back.
