The trees So high Swept the clouds From the deep blue sky Pastel coloured birds Of a myriad breed Swooped, then soared Per chance to feed The clouds, now tinged A deep blood red The rest of the sky A deep blue, in hue Were ready for bed More clouds appear That carried a darker veneer Some a smokey black And others As white as snow They were soon All bound together A blood black ****** show And behind them As they drifted away With a soft swing And a gentle sway The clouds that remained there Were of a reddish grey And soon the night did descend As the dark sky began to transcend As all the clouds Soon met their end
