Blueberry Sky

Through the windshield,
a splendid view.
Even though moving 
along highway lanes 
at a rapid pace, 
we seemed to advance 
in slow motion.

The sky enveloped 
us in a cocoon,
folding in on all sides.

Powder puff clouds
dotted a canopy of clear blue,
dollops of whipped cream
on slabs of Jell-O.

In spots, stretched thin,
as though a giant invisible broom
swept through the wispy puffs

and smeared frosting
on a Kool-aid cake.
