Woke up to a cloudless sky
No white just blue insight
Over the vast horizon
blue and blue alone
No clouds to be seen about
It is when I cleared my eyes
That I was in awe
an awe of fear not of wonder
Only Blue painted above me
Painted past the horizon
Just blue unbound

Looking out, I lay there in my bed
Afraid to move,waiting for white
Hours passed and a cloud came
A single cloud and my fear went

Twas not color of blue that gripped me
Twas a monochrome over such vastness
That brought dread into my soul
No shades of hue to do my work
For night too begets such dread
Waiting its turn to make me afraid
A monochrome brings despair
Whatever its hue, a single is withdrawn
Trying to swallow all it can
Trying to paint all in its path
