Written: December 05, 2023 __________________________________________ Earth's mysteries—swirling in the sky. Heaven is comely with lemon meringue. Vaporizing clouds are dulcet and colored. Cinnamon light was shed on my shoulders. Peering onto the horizon of a waning sun. Beethoven and Mozart split into the ether. Ruby tangos fuchsia in an outburst of ecstasy. Fetching hues of elixir flash and flare. Obsidian clouds yield a rumble of thunder. Cumulus clouds coal-colored clusters. In erratic black seas, akin to rogue boats. Thunderclaps imbue a shiny sheen. A cyan-blue sky casts her limbs outward. Soaring saffron butterflies and kites. A cloud of endorphins shrouds the world. Amid raucous mirth and glamor lullabies. The sky's evocative color palette. sparked by the effervescent moonlight. delightful days laced with zeal and zest amid a kaleidoscope hallucination.

That's got a lot cool imagery. Is it for a contest? If so, it would do well, I bet.

Wow... so beautiful ! Colorful images etched in choicest words.... ! I am intoxicated with the beauty of the kaleidospic sky you have described. "Obsidian clouds yield a rumble of thunder. Cumulus clouds coal-colored clusters. In erratic black seas, akin to rogue boats. Thunderclaps imbue a shiny sheen" Here the sky appears in another countenance, not quite charming, yet beautiful. Another FAVE, dear friend.

Your use of various colors too here is so creative ans artistic. I especially love the lines “ Soaring saffron butterflies and kites.“ “ delightful days laced with zeal and zest“ exquisife alliterations and diction, truly a profound poem worth reading and faving! Every line in this is sheer poetic brilliance.

So beautifully described here Lasaad. I have often watched the sky and found so much color and beautiful pictures ever changing. If you have ever seen the Northern Lights you will know what I'm referring to. Loved this. God Bless, JB

dearest Sotto--you paint the most exquisite pictures with your words. I'm in awe of the vocabulary you used in this poem about the kaleidoscopic sky. When I listened to this poem and read it, I could perfectly envision the sky. I especially liked: he sky's evocative color palette. I imagine the sky is far more beautiful than their musical creations. I ofttimes wonder, "How does Sotto do this?" Amazing! sparked by the effervescent moonlight. I also liked the Mosart/Beethoven reference.
