Shape-Changers The sky is filled with clouds today. Shape-changers, in a vast array. Like Indian magic men of yore, Who knew the secrets of their lore, These clouds can change, at will, to be Fantastic creatures, I can see. Or buildings, ships and dancing clowns And ladies in their bouffant gowns! So many different types are there, All drifting slowly through the air, In endless patterns.Some that bring A somber shade, to everything And some that sprinkle misty rain, But then the sun comes out again. I watch in fascination, till, The darkness crowds my window sill. When I retreat, I'm still aware Of all that mass of cloud out there. Some part of me, would like to fly And join their march, across the sky! Betty Lou Hebert |

Dearest Betty, this poem is really reminisce of my childhood days, when i'll lie on the living room floor, staring out the balcony dreamily at the sky... making stories with the clouds! Its precious! really!! Love Michelle If there cannot be equal in affection, then let the one with more be me - midnightblues™ |
