Gift

A Poem by MsMermaid

Today is my birthday. Here is God's gift to me. Photo from public domain. Avatar photo by Alex Blok, a dear poetry site owner who passed away after his long battle with cancer.

Gift

God gave me a birthday gift
By filling the sky with fire.
At least that's what the clouds looked like
When the sun began to retire.

The fire was in a deep blue lake
Of a sky that looked like the sea.
For my fiery sun sign and watery moon sign
Because God truly knows me.

The sky is ON FIRE today. I just pulled over to capture the sunset (as did another woman).
