Yesterday's Sky

 

This afternoon's air is stagnant,

and the sky is milky white,

rather indifferent to change.



Yesterday's sky was brilliant blue,

and great cumulus flourished

with distinct definition,

exuberant in their growth.



Yesterday, golden drops of sunlight

penetrated layers of leaves

aging with autumn.





Tomorrow, I will welcome

the forecast of rain.



Although it will strip

more color from the woods,

it will also saturate the soil,

replenish the wetlands,

restore my soul.
