The (Prairie) Sky is the Limit

Look up.

Above the big bluestem, the prairie sky changes like a kaleidoscope.

Swirls of pastels.

Whipped cream and foam.

Relentless blue.

Marbled with milk.

There’s motion in the prairie sky. Movement.  It may make you dizzy.

Leave you dazzled.

Disquieted.

Disoriented.

Delighted.

All this is available to you… if you only look up.
