Why’s the cloud pink?
What makes that the color
of delirious early recovery
or achieving the groove again?
When are clouds pink? At sunset!
Well, maybe at dawn sometimes.
Is that the connection, beginning,
looking toward the full glory?
“Paragon” defines pink as a noun.
Embodiment? Embodiment of a cloud?
That’s all wet. “Elite” comes up.
Not a characteristic we seek, recovering.
In the pink. As good as it gets.
But pink clouds come first, before.
