Pastel Skies

It was a pastel sky a merging of blues and purple pinks. No wind, no rain, a chilly dusk following a day of soft, quiet snow heavy with the moisture of what would be rain. A gray white ashen silver day fading into misty hued night. Rainbow sky jarred suddenly awake with colored blossomed blush painting the horizon sunset. Cool blues, arctic, azure, cerulean heaven washed in a Caribbean rouge taffy rose pinks. Soft lines etched in waves and folds south to north west driftings as the sun blazes gold and deepening peach. Still and silent, melon apricot dreams slip in bold yet silent into oncoming cloak of night. Purple thistle mauve berry hushed sky falls dark eventide embracing the trees then surrendering into night fast asleep.
