ROLLING WHITE

When I looked up this morning there was a sea of white

And through it peeked a shaft, a streak, a beam of quiet light 

It grew wider as I stared in captivated pause

Wonderstruck in awe of the sun's majestic cause

It cleared a pathway through the white and colours broke free

Deep violets outlining Puce halo's around the blue gum tree

Then marched the Reds, Deep, Supreme, Cardinal and Sanguine

Swirling Oranges that tumbled after The Carrot and The Tangerine

It bathed the earth below with an effervescent sheen

And Flowers of various hues awoke in the sea of forest green

And just as I beheld this magnificent revelation

the sea of mist crept back advancing without hesitation

The day went grey with the dying light

As the Sun gave way to the Rolling White
