The translucent veil has
lifted from the
mottled green hills,
revealing the blue grey
mountains in the horizon.

Ever transforming sky,
changing from moist grey
to patchy blue,
shines with a fleeting light.
The transient light
glistens on
garden leaves and corn fields.

The glimmer of light
fading with passing time
in the last sunset glow
of the cloud streaked sky.

The evening star shines
in the deepening depth above.
