Secular skies

I sometimes think the skies put on a special show, only for my friend Sylvia from Seattle.

As she says , " After a gray, grumpy, cloudy, cold, windy day, about six o'clock the skies began to clear and this was the glorious way we ended the day!"

I think some kind of prayers got answered ....

Green prayers
under an
erstwhile blue sky;

Dark clouds
gather,
bursting at the seams,
outrageously
hiding
the good,
the bright
and the shining.

Whether
it's
a semicircular dome,
a temple top
or the
faithful pair ,
praising the Lord,
hands
raised to the heavens,
something says,
that
the black
will soon pass
revealing
the peaceful,
smiling
all encompassing
blue
sky behind.....
