It's not sun. It's not edited. It's lightening in the setting sun. Caught on camera overhead Kochi. |
Satin white flashes
Of light with peels of thunder-
Hiding behind the clouds!
***
The dance of the Gods
No human shall enter
Lightens the earth beneath.
***
Lit up by fire from heaven,
A moment of beauty-
And then just darkness.
***
A beautiful thunder
Terrifying so many of us-
Then Lightening of hope!
