Morning Sky
Sky vibrates with blue,
blue so brilliant, so pure,
I blink to insure reality.
Three-hundred-sixty degrees of azure,
backdrop for virginal white mountains—
between peaks thick grey clouds
huff and puff, mount each other
in an erotic dance,
make multiple progeny.
Slash of morning road
splits the landscape—
I drive directly into the clouds.
