The Specter

Noise is not always necessary to attract attention. Sometimes, the presence is all that is needed. This was such an instance where we stood immobile, awestruck by the sheer magnificence of the specter that our eyes now beheld.
Light travels fastest, so this splash of colors probably wasn’t longing the making. One moment the sky was empty and then a blink of the eyes revealed a rainbow looming over our simple heads. All eyes turned to greet and bask in the presence of the rainbow. Cameras lay forgotten, opened only when the rainbow started to vanish back into the teal sky. And for those few precious moments all that existed were beating hearts and blank minds.
