THE CANVAS IN THE SKY

A museum of fine art had fireworks on display

A blaze of tears splashed along heavens way

What caused the Angel-weep so delicately suspended

Over white haired water bearers blended, was it intended?

Surely some celestial plan of grand design spectacular

Not popular, blueprints divulged to the arrested onlooker

sensation causing cessation of motion,
respect for the divine devotion 
we stopped and we stared, we stopped cause we cared

and within each recurrent wave of explosive joy

was transformation from awestruck man to wide-eyed boy

Colours beyond comprehension while the sun sneaked a peek
Blushing cheeks,Over outlined silver, 
the lining stretching, through the last rays of the evening

An unbelievable spectacle spread way up high

A disco ball spinning on the canvas in the sky

Leaving the world in a state of wonder 

Heart in mouth agape at the colour
stupefied beyond dimension

disbelief, at nature's invention

As everything blurred slowly, 
surely into colloidal suspension
