Beneath the Canopy

I gaze at it with an awe struck heart... it seems so unrealistic... a marveling and ever-changing painting before me, a neatly kept row of old houses, just above the rooftops, and through the ventricle system of a large oak, spreads the most exquisite pallet of color, first bright flushed flamingo pink, then, fiery tangerine, captivating coral, seductive salmon, fuchsia, into a raspberry rose, mauve, and oh so pleasant plum, sheer lavender leads me to amethyst....OH NO ... wait... .....it's as if it has stopped.... engulfed under dark grey lilac skies, I wonder, what will tomorrow bring?
