Ever changing colors
From dark to light
The sky is the canvas
From dim to bright.
The sun is the palette
The wind the brush
Water, the medium
For clouds a must.
Thin sheets of white
To pillowy forms
Dark rolling masses
Harbinger of storms.
From reds to blues
Oranges and greys
Yellows and greens
Dull to white blaze.
Green shaded Nimbus
Both dark and grey
Bringing the rain
To spoil the day.
Translucent Cirrus
Up high in the air
Wispy and feathery
like a lock of hair.
Fleecy Cumulus our
Fair weather friend
Ever changing shapes
For us to pretend.
Low level Stratus
That covers the sky
Semi-transparent
a sheet far and nigh.
The colours and shapes
In the sky we see
are Nature\'s treasures
You must agree.
