The Sky's Secrets

The sky opened up today
To share with me her sweet secrets
Dropping each white morsel

And I savored every one
As it melted like purest sugar
On my lips or mouth or tongue

I now know all her secrets
The treats she stores till this season
They are stored in me now

And I would gladly share
If you'll only come back to take them
From my lips and mouth and tongue
