Don't Forget To Look At The Sky!

in blurtlife •  4 years ago 

This is the message I have read many times on the walls and fences of houses in my city. Some kind of graffiti. I don't know who wrote this, but every time I saw this message I looked up at the sky. I realized that I was actually forgetting to look at the sky and I was grateful to the one who wrote the text on people's houses. Of course, the owners of those houses were not as happy as I was.

I live in a big city, with over three million inhabitants, very crowded and where, due to the constructions, the sky is not very visible. Maybe that's why I forget to look at the sky as often as I would like.

In the small towns around the big city the situation is different, the sky is much more visible. At the invitation of some friends, I lived at their house for a few days, in a huge yard with a lot of sky above my head. I remembered the urge written on the city walls and began to look at the sky.

Surprisingly, I noticed a lot of activity in the sky, an activity and a presence that was sometimes announced with the sound of engines but I was not careful to notice. In just ten minutes I saw three kinds of aircraft ...

A small helicopter that looks like a dragonfly!

A propeller plane, an old model I saw as a child. I don't know why it was up in the sky.

Passenger planes, big planes flying high, high in the sky.

I liked the clouds the most, the clouds that drew different images in the blue sky. One of the images reminded me, somewhat, of Van Gogh's famous painting, "Starry Night," one of the most beautiful paintings of this great painter.

Sure, the painting is with a starry night sky, but the way Van Gogh painted the sky is a bit like the clouds in the photo. At least that's what I see.

Clouds can do even more. They can make different images in the sky, you just have to be prepared to see them. You have to be open to see and understand. You have to have time. Now I have had enough time and patience has been rewarded.

Do you see what I saw? A human figure, the head of a man with tousled hair! Maybe a god of the wind?

It was an extremely pleasant experience. When I think that everything was generated by that inscription on the walls of houses in the city ... Don't forget to look at the sky!

I understand and yes!! I saw the man with a very prominent nose and a head of hair!

Vincent by Don Maclean is one of my very favorite songs and Van Gogh, as an aritist. You have good taste. :))

Thank you, Denise! I have to look for the song, I like Don Mclean but I only listened American Pie. I'm glad you saw the man in the sky too.

It is his song, Vincent, although it is on the American Pie Album.

Thanks, Denise! I can't wait to listen. I don't know what your political sympathies are, so I don't know if you're happy or sad now. From here, from afar, I am glad if there will be a change of presidents.

I know you will love it!!! From here, I will wait for the recount, as I know there will be one... then I can celebrate. Anything sooner may jinx it! :)

You are right to wait for the official result. This problem with election fraud is also with us, there are elections in December. I can't imagine the US election being rigged. What would follow after that?

We had the problem with Al Gore when he was declared the winner and the Supreme court countered with Bush being president 37 days later. That was in 2000
