Miracle Sky
By Madhavi Sepuri Karri
What if the sky were to change colour
Every day
Not just a morning periwinkle
Not just an evening persimmon
Lavender lemon mint green mauve
Pastels all
With coloured baubles glittering in the sky
Carnelian emerald cola stars
To melt on your tongue
And chorals of heavenly music
To please every ear
At intervals
Wouldn't life be sweetened
Wouldn’t death be lightened
Only if all logic was cast off
And night sky emptied out
Of constellations
By Madhavi Sepuri Karri
