Purple Hue

Today the clouds have a purple hue,
Not like yesterday when they were blue.
Does the purple hue bring gloom and doom,
Or does it imbue a hint of pink in view?
 
The clouds have flattened,
And lost their cumulus shape.
Now exhibiting a lenticular view,
Still exposing the purple hue.
 
 
It appears something could be hidden,
Inside the disc-shaped cloud.
Could it be something from afar,
Just visiting to see how we are?

Thank you so much. Wrote that today, and I was staring out the windows in NYC staring at the clouds that were rapidly changing. No lenticular clouds, but interesting to watch.
