Celestial Masterpiece

How many times did I try to paint you, my love? Alas, my colours were not enough to paint the unknown labyrinthine art ~ of your paradigm. So I fly~ on memory's wings above each passing cloud as gossamer of light chases the crimson sunset. And there~ with my rainbow-dipped fingers I gently carve your portrait until a celestial masterpiece envelops the saffron sky.
