Splendor

conjure cumulus frost-bitten clouds
curious billows sporting fluffy shrouds
zeniths growing, burgeoning powers
forming glorious looming towers 

hyperboles design brief distortions 
comic sketches of monstrous proportions
cotton confections silvery might
splendiferous altars vestal white 

cryptic vaporized icy smoke
cumulus clouds lure sky-gazing folk
hewn works mimic stunning sculpture
structures wrought by a counterculture

collaborations of Monet and Mozart
celestial etchings artisan art 
secular symphonies marked by the measure 
concertos performed with style at leisure
