Ancient pink … a dialogue

Ancient pink.

What?

Ancient pink!

Your shirt’s color?

No, the light!

Yes, they try to give those bulbs a sense of color

nowadays,

to mask those horrible E-lamps.

No, I mean

the light outside,

this morning at awakening.

I didn't see it.

Sure, you have to wake up early for that magic!

Don’t tell me your obsession with colors and light

made you coming out of your bed to see the color

of the light at dawn?

Yes I did and I will explain you exactly why.

I can’t wait to hear about this foolishness…

Usually

skies are azure, cloudy gray, burnt orange and all their possible shades …

[musingly]

My dearest sky,

I’m wondering

why this morning at dawn

your color was

let me say at least a bit unusual.

While yesterday at sunset you dressed in burnt orange

I expected,

as far as  I’m allowed to expect something from this,

to see you in a gamboges cover or unsurprisingly in pumpkin,

pink orange,

peach orange,

amber,

orange peel,

rust,

Portland orange,

champagne,

safety orange,

coral…

But this,

a shade of

pink?

Incredible you are talking

to the skies now?

Yes and it is very satisfying

as it opens your mind for imagination.

To me it only tells me if

I will need my umbrella.

You see, u’r using tell.

The sky talks to you so.. open

your ears but also your eyes,

your mind, your thoughts.

Value it’s colors when the clouds

open their doors.

That color this morning?

Yes, what about it?

You said it was pink?

Well not exactly,

it was ancient

pink.

Yes, that is what you said,

ancient pink, hmm

I’m wondering?

Yes?

What other color

should it match with?

[musingly]

Ancienttt pinkkk…

[smile]

You see what I mean!
