The Bow in the Sunny Sky – v4

We were blessed, by a singular sight
at least for most of us, looking up
after our time on the beach, at the picnic
a slice of color, cut into the screen
the piece of the dome
a segment of a bow

vertical in the summer sky
strips of color against the blue
growing for but a few moments
iridescent, shimmering in the sunny sky
growing, posing, long enough,
for us all, to marvel
