SKYWATCH
LONG DIVISION
Is this an optical illusion? Will some Blogger tell me why
A rainbow can make such a neat division in the sky?
A cloud approaching stealthily would not come as an arc!
Why should a rainbow split the heavens into light and dark?
When I looked up in reality the sky all looked pale blue.
It was only through the camera that indigo shone through!
So, dear Scientific Blogger, please listen to my plea,
And explain this 'long division' to this rather ignorant me!
