The midsummer sky, so vast and wide, Takes on a hue that's acerb to describe, A canvas of blues, so many shades, A masterpiece that never fades. Deep indigo, almost back, As twilight blue, a hint of black, A sapphire blue, so bright and bold, A baby blue, so soft and cold. The clouds dance, so light and airy, A white so pure, so bright and merry, A gray so dark, so heavy, and so low Pink is so soft, akin to a gentle glow. The stars twinkle, so bright and clear, A constellation, so faraway but near, A moon so round, so bright and white, A sight so grand, it's quite a sight. The midsummer sky, a treasure of art, A beauty that touches every heart, A point in history, so pure and free, A memory that will always be

Its nice, you can vividly see the hues of blue and glow of moon in twinkling stars. We are still in late spring, hope will get some summer days. You are very articulate. I wish I can write like you.
