Sugar Loaf Mountain, Rio

From the very top
The world below
Disappearing
In a wash of clouds
Soft grey and white movement
All around
Until a peak of vibrant color
Emerges
Blues and greens
The sandy shade of a beach
Bits of purple and pink
That dot the mountain side
But how can it be
This moment in the sky
And how can it be
Another in the sea
Swimming in the wind
From such a high point
And how could it
Taste so sweet
