Cooling rains proceed...

Downward extension
of a cumulonimbus
cloud with a  whirling,
destructive vortex reaching
incredible moving speed....

Cumulonimbus carelessly construct.
Billowing towers violently erupt.
The turbulent atmosphere in whom they thrive.
Billowing, breathing, appearing alive....

Listen to poem:

Clouds foretell the weather
Calling fine and fair are:
    Cirrus thin, icy wisps.
    Cumulus puffy, white. 
Calamity coming:
    Cumulonimbus tall.
    Castellanus towers....

Mugginess madness
Cumulonimbus on fire
Smoke-stacked preparedness
Heaven’s quivers edgy bolts
ready to aim
Plummet to feverish terrain
like Aaron’s rod
stirring up Egypt...

as the cool breeze blows
rises with condensation
moving like cloud nine

evaporation
condensation into clouds
magic carpet ride

cumulonimbus
like rain pouring over head
gliding to shelter...

Crispy wispy clouds, it’s ever morphing silhouette.
Billowing sea of silver swirls under huge cover of quite graphite.
Flying through cumulonimbus monster, is my love and my delight.

Flying in the celestial dome,
Above the swirling sea of cumulonimbus clouds,
Through the beautiful blue!

Crepuscular rays of light,
Shining through the clouds.
Ever morphing silhouette captures my sight.

Through the crispy and hooded clouds, I silently sail.
As if I am living a fairy tale!...

"In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous."  Aristole

Clouds,
Drifting
Gossamer,
Amorphously
Cumulonimbus
Botryoidal changelings
Bulbous body-building boils
Robustly rising with swelled heads
Bragging with bursts of thunderous joy
Eager to display lightning anvil crowns...

cumulonimbus clouds gather
 over the far reaches of the sky
rain pelts down in needles of silver 
earth is tickled by the pin pricks 
dormant dreams resurrect
blossoming every heart and the land

Tearing asunder
out of the obscurity of my cloak
with elation

I climb azure skies
to melodies of
moods

throughout
my spiritual wavelength
the whirling swarm
to cumulonimbus cloud.

pooling below my sodden toes,
droplets
     tumbled 
           toward
                the 
                   earth.
blemished ground,
painted in cloud blood.
mighty cumulonimbus has lost-
his wisps shrivel into stars.
       moonlight 
             embraces
                   the 
                      joyous 
                            land....

Headed out early this morning walking
the dogs with a blue sky overhead but
a bank of cumulonimbus clouds building
to the northwest with a faint shard of a
rainbow base hanging on that horizon.
By the end of our walk, the clouds
had moved east and we returned
home in a light sun-shower.

He came to bed late, settled in next
to her and in the morning
left only his mortal remains...

Summer sand soft and sultry,
Salty sweat, sweet and wet.
Wistless wind, waveless water,
Bathers baking, basking burning
Seagull scavenger of shiny sea
Searching, scurrying squabling over scraps.
Wandering women walk with will
Wondering why weight won’t wither.
Trembling toddlers take tentative steps
Towards towering tidal tempest
Cumulonimbus clouds clearing
Silent sky screaming
Silken sunlight streaming
Doting Dad daydreaming...

The most beautiful morning I have ever witnessed. 
Mesmerising expanse of cumulonimbus clouds. 




Pull me up there. 
Keep me alive or make me dead. 
I want to fly up in the air.

Misty clouds plunking down from the celestial dome. 
Oh! gravity is losing its control.

I want to glide through the clouds, evanesces and shines.
Pull me out of this cage. 
Free me from this incarcerate.
I want to write on your grey slate. 
Let me come up,  let me gyrate....
