Secretive Rainbow Spritzes

Amber clouds and rainbow spritzes glide through the heavens
anointing meadows and prairies with well-placed orbs of beauty
orbs that can only be seen by the fey, children, or mystics.
They can be felt, however, by healers, artists, and psychics

A pretty young maiden skips down a farm path, toward a garden.
Clouds can see marigolds, lilacs, geraniums, and bleeding hearts
Is she a healer or a mystic? They ask the rainbow spritzes.
The spritzes laugh, keeping their magical secrets hidden.

The pretty maiden throws her arms in the air and smiles at the clouds.
She is a healer, right? The curious clouds query.
Rainbow spritzes are amazingly silent,
keeping their legacy to themselves.

The imagery in this poem is exquisite, although I have never actually seen a rainbow spritze, I caught a glimpse of it.
