Changing Weather

Bright blue sky, a cloudless summer day

As an artist I note the blue, is it turning grey

In the distance I see a hint but the sun's holding it at bay

Looks like the skis becoming hazy the blue fading away

Definitely getting lighter, the sun is losing I would say

Yes it's clouding over I hope it's not here to stay

Now nearly white perhaps I should shout hurray!

Sky now totally white, well, for rain I did pray

Cloud now turning silver, natures acting, yay!

Oh yes the cloud looks heavy, please, it must rain today

Now black, a flash, now thunder, torrentall rain, I say!

I'm sure I heard the flora shout hip, hip, hurray!

Just had to have a go, not as good as I would have liked, you really have to know the colour hex codes to get the fading perfect, it can be done.

Not something I'll be doing again, but it might come in handy for shape and concrete forms, oh yes ;-)
