hey John, I was looking for a poem I have not seen of yours and could not find one yet and now I need to get off here. Hopefully in the future I will find an oldie of yours to see!

Nicely done, John. You made me think of the planes that fly by and leave their trail of smoke in the air. and wish I was in one of those planes going anyplace... but not ready for the seraphim angels ~*

Good Morning John. Always are there paths in the sky. Paths that lead to all possibilities. Your entry and thoughts are marvelous. The imagery you allow the reader to see is grand. Wonderful entirely. Enjoy the morning and day.

Thank you so much for your kind comments, Lisa. We need only look around us to garner inspiration, whether that be on the ground, in the sky or out at sea. All the best, John.

You paint a vivid image of man-made planes, compared to 'heavenly beings', John. I like watching those silvery white lines. Regards // paul

Thanks, Paul. Was nice to let my imagination take over and embellish the origins of the wispy trails in the sky! Regards, John.
