The Finale

The clouds today were so unique!
I watched them rise, peak after peak
Of glowing white, against the blue.
Some purple masses came in view,
Drifting slow, but soon to fling
Dark shoadows over everything!

Small wisps of gray then came to be
Like puffs of smoke, borne easterly,
While filaments began to tear
Away from all the towers there,
To twist and mingle with the white
And rise to even greater height.

The wind began to rush and roar
And soon brought hail stones to my door.
Then when the storm was finally spent,
I took a jacket and I went
Back outside, for the finale.
Rainbows, arched across our valley!
