A cloudline

A cloudline stained blue 
by an echo of daytide skies 

In a sea of pale mauve 
awash with hues of salmon pink 
aloft in the heavens 

Arches over rolling hills 
bathed in emerald green
Where hedgerows line the patchwork fields 
in the lambent light
of a sublime dusk

When the air is cool
as a gentle breeze wafts over the land 
And pale shadows of night
gather at the far edge of the firmament 
While a chalk white moon 
ascends the celestial walls
