Playing with the clouds, a miracle comes about

Short story inspired by photographs of the sky.

Cool clouds interact with other components of the atmosphere contrasting with blue skies and other elements of nature. Then sunbeams go through and thus paint magical pictures that can make your day, fascinate your eyes, set up the perfect mood for a talk or for thoughts to evolve. And inspire writing.

It could even have been a way to create a more peaceful climate. As a child, my mind was in the clouds, just as the sun was. All the rainbows I had seen, all those times I’d stood in them, had seemed intended to make me feel relaxed. When the day ended, the skies opened up, raindrops spattered my face, while the winds of change blew in my ears, making me dizzy and confused. My mind wanted to go back to being a kid, playing in clouds.

Maybe, I thought, this would all end up being a big show. A show that would help me understand that the world was going through a shift and that things would change. That things were changing -a bit of me was still a somewhat skeptic, a tad more in awe that a miracle had come about, rather than that it had occurred. On the other hand, if it were true, then I was sure this was all just a show. A show of nature.
