Ephemeral

pinkish colored clouds hover

above dark mountain shapes

a sliver of moon hugs venus

surrounded by electric blue

slowly darkening into black

just another fading sunset

above the Waianae mountains

the daily interplay

of colors and shifting clouds

similar but different

expected yet unexpected

ephemeral displays

of nature’s awesomeness

touching our souls

filling our hearts

with adoration

for the beauty

around us despite

our own carelessness
