Cloud Stories

"Cloud Stories"



Not all clouds tell the same story;
Wispy clouds may whisper secrets,
Leaving children giggling at sky's mystery.

Cotton clouds dotting a crystal blue ceiling,
While looking up from a grassy pallet,
May leave one with a dizzy feeling.

Dark and ominous clouds can create fright;
Roiling and bursting with noise,
As wicked wind pushes day into night.

Sky infused with setting sun hues;
Streams of clouds streak along the horizon:
Oranges, pinks, purples, and turquoise blues.

Not all clouds repeat the same story.
Each moment reveals a new image in the tale,
Creating beauty, fear, magic, and mystery.
