Phyllis: you've given a clinic on the power of poetry in brief. Wonderful treatment of the very thing I viewed last night from my window looking east.

Your words hold the picture I saw last night. I watched a wash of red move across the moon in an Arizona sky.
A Renoir painting in slow motion, yes breath stops and heart leaps. Thanks Phyllis
