In a Garden of Clouds

Somewhere, in a garden of clouds My thoughts, like seeds, are scattered Wondering what ideas will root What theme will have been flattered Sometimes, when drought delays the stem And doubt and worry dim the sun I ask for rain and then I wait Notions, like flowers, soon are spun

Beautiful rhymes and rhythm envelope the exquisite essence of your poem, Mike.. When it rains, inspiration blooms, poetry does flower in all its glory.. your superb imagery raises your poem to beyond the garden of clouds. I adore your splendid title as well my friend.. Warmest wishes always.. ~Susan

I adore the rain that cleanses the air and quiches the thirsty earth. I used to live in Seattle and I often miss it. I like the cooler weather. I enjoyed your dreamy poem Mike. : )
