AUTUMN SKYSCAPE

 

AUTUMN SKYSCAPE

 

Dawn comes in a flash of colour, the sky torn apart by yellow,

stark leafless trees stand out against the heavens which have thin wispy clouds that hide the sun behind an ocean of colour that my eyes struggle to see.

Soon the brightness dies like a wilting flower and the clouds layer the sky in an undulating landscape of gossamer;

it looks like an upside-down terrain of an alien planet –

the varied landscape of autumn.
