Cloud War Chunks of sky rain down. Under battleship gray clouds, Huge guns of thunder. |

I usually cruise through a museum... looking quickly and moving on. But then I'll find a painting that holds me rapt for ages... as I try to absorb every detail. I read poetry in much the same way... by now, I should be used to the way time stops when I read your words. *S* If you're going to write so vividly, you really should furnish umbrellas. *S* This is superb!!! |

This is the next thing I want to learn, mine are so bad I wouldn't put them here. That is especially embarassing for someone named Kazuo! |

Ed The rain was so gentle this morning...yet something in me heard and saw a sky like this, raw and open and wounded in battle. Thank you for expressing it. ![]() |

When the sky is full of clouds and free time is mine it can be interesting watching the clouds laying on my back on the grass...James |
