Cumulus

i can
lay back
on the grass
or sit on my as
s still looking at

cloud
formations that
mentally translate
into shapes that i want
to make into positively happy

things beautifully floating
in my lying imagination
looking out this plane's
windows on a different
plain for i am above 

looking down upon 
them now slowly 
going down among
them becoming
one with them

finally being below
them and landing
now standing
staring straight

a cloud is coming

towards me but
i need not make
a shape that i 
want to see 
for she is

already
shapely

i love looking at the clouds and seeing something...then watching it reshape itself into something else... we are never too old for that...
