As I headed my car west, the
Sun rays suddenly penetrated the
Clouds overhead turning them an
Intense pink.
Hovering in a layer beneath the bright
Blue sky, the contrast in colors was
Stunning,
Breathtaking.
I was glad that I was forced to stop at
A red light so I could stare longer at
The spectacle, trying to memorize
Every brilliant detail.
When I turned onto the freeway the
Fleeting glory was gone.
But I couldn't help but tell God, "Wow!
That was amazing! I think that sometimes
You just like to show off."
