| Current Search - clouds in Lord of the Flies |
1 Over the island the build-up of clouds continued.
2 Up in the cloud canyons the thunder boomed again.
3 High up among the bulging clouds thunder went off like a gun.
4 Then the clouds opened and let down the rain like a waterfall.
5 One could guess at the movement of the sun by the progress of a light patch among the clouds.
6 Colors drained from water and trees and pink surfaces of rock, and the white and brown clouds brooded.
7 The life-like movement would scare them off for a moment so that they made a dark cloud round the head.
8 The clouds were sitting on the land; they squeezed, produced moment by moment this close, tormenting heat.
9 Now streaks of cloud near the horizon began to glow rosily, and the feathery tops of the palms were green.
10 When the wind reached the mountain-top he could see something happen, a flicker of blue stuff against brown clouds.
11 Up there, for once, were clouds, great bulging towers that sprouted away over the island, grey and cream and copper-colored.
12 Toward midnight the rain ceased and the clouds drifted away, so that the sky was scattered once more with the incredible lamps of stars.
13 Smoke was seeping through the branches in white and yellow wisps, the patch of blue sky overhead turned to the color of a storm cloud, and then the smoke billowed round him.
