All I saw was glorious clouds
reflected in shades of peach
from the setting sun
shredded banks,
long strips
or little puffs
I had to stop, lift my eyes and
breathe deeply of the soft evening.
Where was even one other child
to share in that magnificent sight?
“We teach children how to measure and how to weigh.
We fail to teach them how to revere, how to ease wonder and awe.”
~ Rabbi Harold S. Kushner, author, lecturer
