If you recolored the sky
what would you use?
Would you stand there
on the tallest ladder
paint pallette in hand
patiently rebrushing
the whole sky one shade:
sky blue, as it should be?
Or would you change things
make the sky a rainbow
red, orange, yellow, purple
of the colors only seen at sunset?
Maybe you simply wouldn't care.
You would let the sky
go shades of gray.
Turning the rest of the world
the same dreary
black-and-white.
The best kind of sky-painter
would pick out
all the shades of blue and light gray
that there ever were
and they would know
by heart
how to put back the sky
hue by hue.
How would you paint the sky?
