The clouds parted like the pursed lips of desire, opening to a dazzling glow of molten fire, as rays reflect to cover rippling waves below, and like a fairyland, the colors blend their flow. Dear Nature is the painter of the finest art that marks its motion as it spreads and morphs apart just like a lovely watercolor's subtle smear captures a complicated vision, true and clear. I wonder at the stunning scenes that Nature sprays with fiery sunsets, spreading out their awesome blaze. This mystery of what we see lasts a short time, though the fine art of what we see remains sublime.
