- Clouds -

                                     Cupid nacreous clouds
                                     Cradled near setting sun
                                     Creamy temple pillars
                                     Cyprus grow in spirals
                                     Cloud nine is for lovers
                                     Clasp me close in your arms
                                     Closer to the divine

-- the spirals, the fluffy, colorful imagination's pinkish cotton taffy -- one's choice to stretch either logical or daffy. It's all free! Divine writing.
