Not a Cloud

A day like this is not allowed Too often, for there’s not a cloud To interrupt the view on high Of smooth, serene and boring sky. Don’t get me wrong – the weather’s great And most folks wouldn’t hesitate To choose this over one where there Are cumuli up in the air. Yet I prefer adornment, so A clouded sky’s the way to go. I love the sunshine, but delight In skyscapes dappled through with white.

Really nice, the rhyme is tight and the cadence of this beautiful poem is very smooth. The theme is lovely as well. Nicely crafted Ilene.
