Looking up at the clouds so high

Watching colors stretch across the sky

As they combine and spread apart gracefully

An ever-changing work of art slowly slips by

 

As the sun first wakes

Golden hues are painted on the tips

I’m struck by the beauty

How lucky I am to be a witness

 

As the sun slowly dances across the sky

The image changes as clouds come and go

Feathery wisps of cotton stretch out

While others appear as the atomic bomb exploded

 

As the sun reaches the western horizon

The colors of the rainbow come back for a second act

Purple, pink, red, and orange are coated in layers

Until the colors slowly fade to black
