He Wrote

 He blew the lining
out of the silver sky
as he wrote
with his ivory pen

thinking about it 
later to cry
as something he
could never mend

I thank you very much for your reading of this poem, some terms and expressions of free thought are sometimes challenged, and I, being very fond of what I call. off the wall poems. and I know to Me they make perfect sense and to others something completely different, and others don't understand whatsoever, still I write and give a warm thanks to those who do like them. many thanks Magics02. and I'll send the Love back your way.
