Above Us

free floating clouds pass
calm canvas, an abstract sky
rhythmic white brushstrokes

Ahh!! To float on one of those clouds above earth's problems, but alas, we have to settle for being earth bound until. Enjoyed reading your contest entry. Congrats on this winner. Sara

What a beautiful picture your "brush strokes" of words paint Brian. Summer clouds are both amazing and so much fun to gaze at from a hammock or lying in the cool grass. Such a deliughtful summer afternoon pastime! Congratulations and high fives for your win! ATB
