Nothing Days

On nothing days - long days of dreaming;
I'd sit and watch the passage of the clouds;
Reflect on the weight of my existence;
And ponder death with an open mind.
The clouds, they stimulate my senses;
They make me long that I could float;
To join their huge, momentous drift;
And satisfy a consuming urge.

Emmanual, nice images - brings back memories of days when I too have sat doing nothing but looking at the clouds and pondering life. All the best, Krista
