Cotton candy pinks and marshmallow whites
flaunt iridescent sheens buffed by the sun.
And colored clouds, lined with mother-of-pearl,
hang in the sky like a prize fairly won.
Darkness gathers in tattered strands of grey,
strewn across a sky of indigo blue.
And stars glitter as a dying sun shrinks
to a crimson ball with a scarlet hue.
Ebony fingers scratch at the skyline;
like inky tentacles grasping for light.
And as camouflaged greens morph into black;
silhouetted abstracts merge in the night.
Liquid amber burns atop umber waves,
highlighting their frothy, foamy whitecaps.
And golden beams gild glistening waters;
as cascading breakers crash and collapse.
Playful breezes tickle leaves on the trees;
sending laughter tumbling down to the sand.
And as Sol dies wrapped in a scarlet shroud,
time's suspended and reality's banned.
