The Envelope of the Clouds

Turning my head,
drawn to the brilliant light
tearing through, the slate, the blues,
the white, the envelope of the clouds
not being denied, the yellow-white
the sun demanding center stage
pushing back the layers,
the fabric of the clouds
demanding to light my path
our walk to school this day
