(I)

Pale mulberry was the sky,
No bird dared to fly!
Thus all seemed wrong,
But then, you came along
Suddenly like summer rain
And quelled away my pain.

(II)

Velvet blue was the sky,
No bird dared not to fly!
Thus all seemed right,
And as pure as a cloud in white,
When suddenly like the rainbow,
You quelled away thy heavenly glow.

(III)

Dark grey is the sky,
No bird seems to ever fly!
Athwart my wild blue yonder
Where I, indignantly do ponder
Night and day wondering why,
We can't give it just one more try.

(IV)

Pitch black is always the sky,
But, faster than any bird I'll fly!
Swifter than a scudding cloud
Whilst calling upon you so loud,
All the way to a strange plain,
Just to ever feast about you again.

(V)

Magenta magic will always be the sky,
When once again we'll merilly fly!
Then, flowers once again shall bloom,
To see you and me as bride and groom
By a placid Mulberry Moon on the rise,
To kindle our enchanted paradise.

Make the heart a lovely garden,
Ever cautious of what you sow.
Fill each space with deeds of kindness,
Where the seeds of friendship will grow.

Open the gates to this heaven,
When the world gets hell outside.
Let them walk through this garden,
Make them feel like at home inside.

Tend to it now and again,
Make sure you always heal the pain.
Some will be nice and gentle,
Some will throw it in the drain.

It is afterall, your own creation,
Upto you to how to mend.
It will be your life's reflection,
Nurture it with love in the end…
