Ladders in the Sky

Max said the blue sky was a just a wrapper
Tear it open and find animals beneath the wrapper.

Clouds are cotton candy the stars enjoy,
The same way the ones here have no wrapper.

Hang your joy at a height none can reach,
Everyday launch and slay a new wrapper.

Father Abraham would totally be my first relic to see,
Like Delta men, I wonder if he dressed in wrapper.

If I ever get sad, I’ll go to my abode above,
If I ever get cold, I’ll cover with the skies wrapper.

Tomorrow, a new sky will be unveiled,
But the sky never changes its wrapper.

The same old blue sky that Simba looked to,
Mofasa helped him discover the star design on his wrapper.

Betwixt peace and a strong desire for beauty,
Lies a gift in a golden wrapper .

The wedding dress, the suit, the ring,
Marry not the one who buys you a wrapper.

I have become a part of this peaceful blue,
I am sky, I hide the heavens in my wrapper.
