SUNSET CLOUDS by ETHELYN MILLER HARTWICH

First Line: DRIFTING BY ON GAUZY WINGS
Last Line: FRAMED IN TINTED ORIELS.
Subject(s): MEMORY;
Drifting by on gauzy wings,
Fleece in rose on azure swings,
Breeze-blown, through the sky.
Every fleet transition brings
Dreamy, distant, pictured things.
Caravans and caravels,
Bearing fruits and asphodels,
Float across the sky,
Limned like delicate pastels
Framed in tinted oriels.
