Cumulo nimbi fly high upon a pristine cobalt sky, capturing a poet-mind’s eye, holding it suspended, in a dream-trance; then spinning it round and round in a celestial dance reflecting cloud-shadows as they touch down, twirling time-space beyond the grounded mind into the eternal cosmic void. |

VERY interesting write! I am especially fond of: "spinning...round and round in a celestial dance reflecting cloud-shadows as they touch down, twirling time-space beyond the grounded mind into the eternal cosmic void." for me, this once again speaks of the "Universalist" paradigm! serious applause!! |

From one cloud gazer to another, this was exquisitely beautiful!  I am tucking this little gem into my treasure trove. You might enjoy this site on cloud formations ~ http://web.ukonline.co.uk/mark.shufflebottom/Cloud%20formations.htm Giving you a fluffy, white cumulus hug, Linda |

Thank you WW and ArtSolstice! I love watching clouds, usually see animals or plants dancing around the various formations. |

I loved this poem. And you see "animals and plants". I usually see animals and faces. I wonder what if anything it says or can we tell by things we see in flowered wallpaper and clouds. I used to, as a child and can still do it I suppose, keep mysef entertained by looking at the wallpaper and seeing all sort of faces. Love your posts and always look forward to reading you. "late" |
