Notes About The Poem

beautiful starry sky | Tumblr

Clouds Shifting Hues

Watching clouds as a hued mural against sky’s ceiling  enthralls
Embossing the dome with majestic stars, lustrous as fireworks;

Then rain pours … to shapeshift nimbus into a bleak tapestry.

Clouds have fascinated me from a little girl, they change shape so elegantly and without any effort that you can not even notice it happening - one moment it is and the next it's not! Good luck in the contest my friend not that you need it. Hugs, Jennifer.
