 Glimpses of Fire by Raymond A. Foss 
						Glimpses of fire
 fleetingly in the sky
 turning to smoke
 right before my eyes
 
 Stopping to wonder
 to watch the changing sky
 brilliant colors of the dawn
 yellow, white, luminous, alive
 caught in the mirror of the clouds
 
 Dulling to gray, blue, purples
 softer pastels of darker hues
 a different palette all together
 in a matter of moments
 lost in sameness
 a washed tableau
 fading from view
