Pink cotton candy striated clouds Intermingle with blue Lure the artist to observe painting Upon a canvas true Distant doves sing a summer song Happy to raise a large brood Soon they'll be independent Seeking out their own food Life goes in circles, birds nesting In places they were born Some families never leaving Hold onto land plant corn The sun never failing man Rises each day to warm Today it rises fire ball red Warning of impending storm The canvas is painted a little Different each day No two exactly alike For the earth doesn't stay The earth's rotation brings change Near and far to the sun Slowly changing positions Keeping life, having fun Now the sun is golden glowing Just above the tree tops Its heat will be scorching too soon Destroying unwatered crops Just a few minutes out on the porch Time for spirit renewal How it prepares my inner needs Helps my spirit fights duels Written: Tuesday, July 28, 2015
