Memory Clouds

Muting of mums, yet rainbow’s nigh.
Memory clouds don’t often lie.

Darkened skies of treetops. One drop.
Subdued arcs in photo workshop.

Release of the silver lining.
The truth of matters reclining.

Facts are not new violets in rain.
Kissing splotched photo, without brain.

Virga won’t release history.
Weather remains a mystery.

Slight chance of weeping; willows fade.
Jellyfish don’t reach hunter’s blade.

As one time follows another, your poem cautions me that one memory releases another. The wonderful flow has a happy ending when a jellyfish escapes its doom.

Apparently some clouds look like jellyfish. The hunter’s blade refers to the grass. Hugs

a delightful use of imagery, Kim. I especially liked 'memory clouds don't lie.' yellow rose

Memories become so dreamy- a cross between both? A line, silver lining? A wish itself on a memory. That's what comes to me. I am floating, now, too. LOL <3
