Through the dreadful...comes the beautiful.
The night was loaded with omens,
Lighting that is as bright as the sun,
The wind screaming through the storms.
Rain spraying a fountain of water,
Turning it to a dangerous metal.
The grieving sky compelled the stranger's admiration and regret.
Traveling all over the world,
Always going, always moving, always traveling.
Strictly for business, this was the work of an evil man.
The dreadful storm descending down in a desolate town.
The late afternoon changed everything.
The bad became the beautiful
Waves of color that burn and glow
From red to yellow, yellow to green, green to blue,
Colors, north, south, east, and west.
Dazzled by the clarity of the light
The sky, the most enchanting colors in the world
The bad became the good
The sun bright as crystals, no language could do it justice
The whole sky sparkles with diamond plumes.
The wind waved at the explosion of dazzling jewels
Can see it from miles in every direction
Like light, lighting up the late afternoon sky.
Dazzled by the light, dazzled by the color, dazzled
Even through the dreadful there is something beautiful.
