Rose Sky

More thunder than you could fit in a can of gr...

The sky blushed with soft shades of rose, clouds softly rolling in darkening the sun

A heart that was heavy lifted as emotions floated on the wind, I exhaled and the sky blushed.

Soft droplets of rain falling gently from the folds of lavender robes as a clap of thunder trumpeted the arrival of a majestic display of power and humility

Branches bowed low in worship, leaves danced in delight

Emotion seeped from hidden spaces, riding waves of tears pushing past floodgates of fear

The sky blushed and I exhaled.
