Look for me in the sky

by jojo   Mar 26, 2008


Look for me in the sky
The clouds will be my disguise
Through each sunset and sunrise
Just look closely and you’ll find me
When you’re angry, thunder will roar
When you cry, rain will downpour
And when you feel lonely it will snow
But after all the sadness disperses
There will be a colorful rainbow

Look for me in the ocean
Whether the tide be low or high
I will be right there sailing on by
So smile that bright, strong smile I love
Give me a kiss, give me a hug
Watch the waves brush up against the sand
For only you will understand

Look for me in your heart
As corny as that may sound
Because if all else fails that’s the one place I can be found
So I hope you know that even if we are not together
My heart goes out to you now until forever
So just look real hard, look all around
And everywhere, anywhere I can be found

    This is a beautiful piece. The poetic metaphors provide a dreamy imagery that is very romantic

    This poem went out nicely. Although the rhymes seemed to be forced in some places:
    "Told you we will not ever be apart
    Cause no matter what you will be in my heart "
    The style of this poem isn't one I'm familiar with, but I'll endore it anyway. The flow was cut in some places. Although that, the descriptions you gave were easy to imagine, I liked that.
    Nice work 4/5

    I really enjoyed this poem, it seems to be heartfelt and it's beautiful in a way. There were a few things I thought needed work on, but the emotion in this poem almost makes up for them. I figured I'd read through a second time to double check for mistakes, and that's when I found a few. They're not really mistakes, but things that will just help it a bit.

    Look for me in the sky
    I will be there in the stars
    Look closely, use your eyes
    Open up, open wide
    I will be looking down, back at you
    Smiling, laughing right by you
    Told you we will not ever be apart
    Cause no matter what you will be in my heart

    ^^ I know you have four lines per stanza, and it's not a problem, but for some reason those eight lines seem as if they could be broken up into two four lined stanzas, eh. But, good choice with this.

    There was one thing " told you" << I don't like that, it's kind of . . there, you know? The rest is just beautifully flowing and this isn't so much.

    Look for me on the highway
    I will be there by all the cars
    Just remember I am not too far
    But I stay there right by you
    So do not have freight, do not have a fear
    Do not worry baby I am right here
    Looking back at you I see your might
    So stay real strong do not have a fright

    ^^ I know you're not really rhyming too much but maybe take the forth line and make it " I will be everywhere you are" or something? I just don't like that line, it kind of messes up the flow.

    Look for me in the ocean
    Let it all out, show your emotion
    Smile that bright, strong smile I love
    Give me a kiss, give me a hug
    Hold me close so I can smell your cologne
    You have me here; you have me all on your own

    ^^ Six lines? IDK, It kind of didn't go well, other times it may have but not here, lol. And, I don't know if I like the word 'emotion' it just kind of threw me off, like " told you" in the first stanza.

    Look for me in your heart
    I know I am there
    Even when we are apart
    Trust me I am sure
    So I hope you know that even if we are not together
    My heart goes out to you now till forever
    Just look real hard, look all around
    And everywhere, anywhere I can be found

    ^^ Last four lines are a bit long, but overall it's a good ending. NOt as strong as the other poem I read, but it's still there and doesn't seem as if more is needed or any of that.

    I did love this poem, a few things I THOUGHT needed fixing, but remember it's just my thoughts not yours. it is your poem and you did a wonderful job with it, so I hope you don't feel offended or like you have to change it. They're just what I think - and I'm not the writer of this poem.

    Keep it up, dear. I really enjoyed the poetry.
