a fireball - peeking through...

...the trees

this morning

it was like a fireball of the sun - coming straight for me - hot and light - blazing in intensity - creating a rainbow of color - across the sky - it's funny how it happens so quickly - one minute you see - these streaks of color - a crayon box of which to choose from - take your pick - then just like that - they're gone - having changed to muted - almost non-distinct colors - you can barely distinguish - they are so pale - against the dark blue sky - you must always look quickly - when the sun is coming up - if i didn't have my camera - i'd think i was seeing things - and depending on where i was standing - depended on what shade of coloring - i was able to achieve - the variety of muted greens - blues - oranges - appearing high in the sky - reflecting off the sun's rays - it's a fascinating exercise - one easy to perform - when you struggle with insomnia

although i then panicked - forgetting i had done so - thinking i had no blip at all - wondering what i was going to do - late in the day - as i grabbed my camera to rush out - having a brief memory of early morning hours outside - looking back through - relief washing over me - somehow insomnia also wreaks havoc with my ability to remember - my short term memory capacity - but all is well - since you can see the resulting effort - so it's ended in...

a

happy day.....
