Gary Smith Poet Rhyme

He Painted the Sky

Tangerine, crimson, aquamarine

Behold the sunrise, an artists palette

Such vivid colours they conjure a scene

Truly so lovely, my favourite and yet


Coral and lemon with a lilac hued tinge

The soft touch of lavender delights me too, 

Beautifully set in a saffron rich fringe

A watermelon finish, chartreuse peeping through.


Look to the heavens some clear early morn

Take it all in, a treat for the eye

A kaleidoscope feast, the day now reborn

How wondrous the Lord... he painted the sky.
