Molten Sky

This molten sky
Enveloping
Sweet nature’s towers
In cloudy flames
Of fiery grey
Which leap and dance
Yet leave no mark
But for the rain
Which splatters me
And like those fires
Burning orange hot
Renews the life
On mountainsides
Then when it’s past
This monochrome
Reveal the sun
To cast its light
On verdant slopes
With cotton peaks
