The sky was jumbled yesterday after the off and on rain that we had since sunrise. Highest were the seemingly immobile white clouds and below that were these tattered grey remnants of the day’s rain clouds crabbing off to the east, seeming to move quickly against the lightly textured white above them. The temperature had dropped and the tatters seemed like a warning that the respite from the unsettled weather would not last forever.
The view from my window is vaguely northeast and so when the sun sets whatever light there is throws itself at the power poles and signs along Route 1 and then seems to bounce up to reflect off the sides of the light tan of the National Bank building. If I look out at just the right time, when the sun is very low but not yet below the horizon, just before sunset, the effect is one of flood lights aimed at those walls. Yesterday the light came in just that way, the air so clear that the new spring grass along the highway was impossibly green. The illusion was of a photograph printed on high gloss paper.
My apartment balcony has a particularly good aspect for viewing rainbows except for all the power lines and buildings in the foreground. Yesterday, a swoosh of rainbow was all there was but it was quite wide at the base. I don’t know if an artist could do a single brush stroke with so many colors but that’s what this one reminded me of…as if God were saying, “Just do it!” If He wears Nike’s he is definitely a power forward or a center.
About two hours later Pope John Paul II died…make of it what you will.
