107. A Career in the Clouds

The continent of cloud hangs overhead, thick as an old grey duvet. It blocks out the sun and threatens rain. The Skylarks, Children of Air, are busy draining the build-up of water by flooding the towns below.

When the rains clear the sky is ready; like a blue canvas. White fluffy clouds, like sheep, are herded across the fields off cyan. Everyone is preparing for the Sunset Show, bringing in clouds to stage the perfect setting.

Placed to catch the setting sun, the clouds light up with rose-pink, crimson and violet colour.   

The Skylarks job is done for another day.
