Frothy Clouds

Along the winding skyline, a parade
Of bird-tails on flight with puffed caress
Like giant pearls woven by moonshine’s braids
A hammock of foams swerving on crowned dress
To pass unto hillsides so wholly blessed

And fluid my breath I marvel the view 
Reflecting peace, clouds transparent drift
Oh,wonder of shifting faces imbue
Such tranquil gait that cruises and uplifts
Lightening my woe as hushed froths pour mist.

Hey congratulations, I had not seen the winners list yet. Nor your poem. Great imagery. I remember a long time ago when someone had us use the hammock in the sky imagery. It works so well for clouds!

Nette, should I now call you Nette Oncloud? They are indeed wonderful things. Just tiny water droplets that form so many unusual shapes. One of my favorite pictures is of the lenticular cloud that forms on Mount Fuji. By the way, thank you for your kind comment.

It almost seems like you're speaking from the perspective of an incomplete angel looking down from above, searching for the final pieces to her wing. Wonderful job!
