A single lonely cloud floating by casting a small shadow on the ground a shadow that changes as the cloud is twisted and altered by a breeze
As it slowly moves on, it shape shifts now a swan but wait a fiery chariot that thunders by, a forest in the sky mountains and houses, even a lake
The wind strengthens blowing more clouds to combine into a shiny city icicles hang down forming diamonds that glitter and sparkle in the sunshine
A single lonely cloud floating by captures my imagination setting it afire filling me with wonder as I watch it put on its own spectacular solitary show
Hi Shadow, I really like this one, being a cloud watcher myself, the dreamer comes out in me and the most wondrous things my eyes do see. And then the little white cloud cries in its loneliness. Have a good day. Catch you later, MIKE.
This is fun shadow, captures the imagination as surely as the real thing

From watching the clouds to envisioning a dream this one speaks to the heart and touches the soul. Thank you Shadow for sharing. Interestingly it speaks about two of my favorite poetry pals "Cloudysky" and "Shadow" LOL. So you knew I would love this one.
