Through Child Eyes

Many years ago through child eyes,
Nightly I admired Iraqi skies,
Seen from a clearing my eyesight stetched,
Colors in glow, Iraqi Sunsets,

Palms in the distance standing proud,
The sky blanketed by a single cloud,
Highlights of orange, red, and gold,
Bringing day into night, a new story told,

Holding hands with the father of mine,
We'd go here nightly after we'd dine,
Here we'd stay until night settled in,
Then we'd return to where we had been,

Memories return and bring tears to my eyes,
Memories of beauty, special skies,
Memories past with no regrets,
The VISIONS we shared, IRAQI SUNSETS


.

    This is really great and has a good rhythm, but I'm just curious as to why some of the last part is capitilized. It's sort of distracting. Anyway, good job!!
