Premiere Contest WinnerStreamers In the Sky

Streamers in the sky, 
etched deeply as they contrast 
against the pale blue, 
breaking up the monochromatic 
ceiling with its white streaks, 
a criss-crossing interception 
trying to erase each other from above, 
a temporary display which lasts for 
a few hours until determined clouds 
decide to camouflage the unwelcome 
intrusion by upstaging with their 
slow-motion dance of drifting cotton balls.
