Sun-faded blue stretched endlessly
Above these mortal plains
Horizon to horizon
Defying human claims
Scattered with wispy clouds
Magenta, crimson and gold
Unattainable, untouchable
Hiding secrets untold
Pale gleaming stars
Hang shimmering early
Promising dreams
Hued silver and pearly
So suddenly, the magic departs
Leaving a feeling of sadness
To touch my minds intimate hearts.

I used the third picture (the painting I think) for my inspiration...

Nice poem I enjoyed the read. I don't see the purpose of capitalizing the beginning of each line, but that is my opinion, seems allot of people do it.
Thank you for entering and good luck in the contest
