Poetry In the Clouds

Passing clouds stir the muse
 As flowers bloom in spring
 Lilacs sway in the breeze,
 A haiku stirs within
 With such enchanting ease

  Passing clouds stir the muse
 In blue skies of summer
 Sonnets in the sunshine,
 With scenes painted in rhymes,
 Each stanza so divine

  Passing clouds stir the muse
 As autumn leaves fly by
 With trees adorned in gold,
 A lyric starts to flow
 With splendor to unfold

  Passing clouds stir the muse
 In winter's somber mood
 Each season to admire,
 Then snowflakes start to fall,
 The poet to inspire

As clouds drift through the tender blue, they lightly lift me and you. This is beautiful in every way. I am smiling and floating, all at the same time, and I'm placing this in my favorites. :) Hugs, Brandy

A poet exults in all the fleeting changes in nature and the muse in him wakes up to every scene and sound. Beautifully composed, dear friend !

Nothing beats the seasons to stir the muse Joseph, artists use a brush us poets use a pen. Best of luck in the contest and enjoy your week. Tom

Clouds pass as do the seasons and in each one a muse discovers a reason to write. Nicely done, Joseph.
