titanium clouds quickly race by, immersed in a cobalt blue sky, chased by billowing paynes gray buffoons filled with rage, anger and condensation away in the distance, dotted specks of lamp black fly high over abandoned barns and fallow fields; it seems more storms approach, from different directions dire predictions of a new deluge followed by a consuming conflagration and here we sit, smiling, counting our blessings and pretending the sun will shine again tomorrow just as it has done for centuries but who knows where our World goes when we are through trashing it and all its inhabitants but not being one willing to dwell within the landscape of gloom and doom, I grab my palette, re-paint the skies quickly, loading up my mindscape's brushes with shades of mauve, amber, cerulean blue, and dot the landscape anew with brilliant oranges and yellows, sap green, splashes of vermillion, too. And as I offer this view to you, I wish for all to spring into action to guarantee that future generations have a world worthy of their God's view. |
