The sky is
A aqua canvas
where pale clouds
drift across the blue
sometimes it is splattered with gray
on stormy days
and never shows the yellow
But do not fear
for the blue washes over it
and the white splatters on
and begins on a new canvas.

Sunny days spent lounging in the sunlight was the basis of this poem.
