clouds

Listen to poem:
Look at the clouds in the sky above Puffy, vaporous, fluffy stuff, Ephemeral, illusionary, ever-changing A moving mass, reshaping before our eyes. Billowing blotches spreading like ink on blotting paper, soaking in, imbibing a recall of inward reflections that perspective can change sides, change viewpoints in time and space near and far, old and new, up and down, side to side, rocking to and fro, for the spell of clouds lies in their illusions, on which we dwell.

Hello John Anderson, I am a cloud watcher. i have been watching clouds for many years. I see the shapes of different sizes. then the clouds change shapes again. i watch them slowly move to change shapes before my eyes. Enjoy your day my friend., /Darlene/
