What the Thunder Said Vol. 7 | Page 39

With a loud BOOM petals of light unfurl

One sky flower having as many colors as a whole field

Sparkling with morning dew in the sky

The petals falling off

Fading into darkness

With concussive blast new life comes into being Feeling the peaceful beauty of the mundane sky Fending off the darkness

Seeing the yin yang of life and death

A sky flower field coming into being

Then fading out of existence

BOOM

BOOM

Smoke rolling down

Where the seeds were planted

Now smelling of gunpowder

And vanishing as quickly as its appearance

A shock wave pushing back

The beauty of a sky flower field

Sky Flowers
