The Bow in the Sunny Sky – v3


We were blessed, our eyes open
by a singular sight
after our time on the beach,
over our picnic, in the sky
a slice of color, colors,
cut into the screen
this piece of the dome
a segment of a bow
vertical in the summer sky
color against the pale blue, the curtain
growing for a few brief moments
iridescent, shimmering in the sunny sky
growing, posing, long enough,
for us all to marvel
