Touching the Clouds

Shadows end with no beginning
Darkness envelopes light
Rumbles become a roaring fright
Lightening splits the dreary skies
Mockingbird soars fast in flight
Dripping from gray sailing shrouds
Drenched I smile ...Touching the clouds

A magical poem that makes the reader long to see all of the images you describe and smile while "Touching the Clouds." Every line has such a beautiful image, Jane! Your gift touches me. Love, Carolyn
