The Sky Had Something to Say

The clouds came dressed in pink and gold,
a story only skies can hold
they swelled and bloomed above the green
like something felt and rarely seen.
Below, the buttercups stood small,
unbothered, yellow, one and all,
not asking why the light burns warm,
not fearing what comes after storms.
The trees just watched. The tall grass swayed.
The whole wide world quietly stayed
and for a moment, nothing moved,
as if the earth itself had paused
to look up too.
