A Slice of Sky

Neville

A Slice of Sky

 

Pastel

amethyst yellow

skies ..

Filled to overflow

with the

silhouettes

of gold eyed birds

in flight ..

I must make notes ..

For surely,

winter is only just

around,

the very next corner ..

    Good write N,
    We not started Autumn yet! lol.
    This gives me a cue for a Christmas carol - in August! heehee.
    Goldfinch/Andy will shoot me, for not waiting until December. 😁

    Hope so .. cheers 👍

    Not for me it ain't...Summer is on its way....
    The prompt to make notes before this season presents itself, seems a reasonable proposition (thanks for that), if I can find an incombustible medium...

      This is so beautiful! I can see all the pastel colors. I have an Amethys stone. It's violet/purple. AND, I read "a slice"....and I said, OF CAKE. Then, your first word is "pastel", which is cake in Spanish. I guess I need to go get me a piece of cake!! Loved it!!

            Exquisite imagery, color evokes such warm feelings, "Silhouttes of gold eyed birds" a sense of peace. Had to take a breath, and just sigh in contentment. Thank you!

              indeed, my wise friend
              we must cherish
              that gifted nature aesthetic
              in our now of verdant sublime
              and rainbow winged skies...
              as far too soon
              it will be grey, brooding clouds
              once again..
              still variety, does add to flavour
              in life

              • Neville



                Bless you brother Mek .. tis good to have you back my friend .. Neville
