The top of the Eiffel Tower rises against a wispy sky where a patch of cloud iridescence shimmers in pastel pinks and greens beside a bird in flight.

After slowly walking for three days across Paris, through its historical landmarks, colorful blooming parks, and even flower markets, I completely stopped while looking at the sky this afternoon.

For the first time in my life, I observed glowing iridescent colors imprinted on a cloud, without rain.

The scene still feels unreal but beautiful, as I am still processing what I saw
