Clouds (Paloma’s Challenge)

Embedded image from another site

As I lie beneath the blues of Autumn skies gazing
Under gossamer clouds like delicate fine silken webs
I feel the soft psithurism whispering as winds change
Creating etched patterns of soft white cumulus clusters
Imagining floating amongst the puffy cotton clouds
Calmness hovering above me in suspended ataraxia
Contemplating cosmic destinations in far away galaxies
My soul is on endless tranquil journeys to a magical destination
As my avatar runs free through cloud strands of statocumulus
The suns heat pushes thunderheads of overcast expressions
Into quiet dullness which seems reverent as coolness brings forth
Tears of light rain falling in remincence of secret celestial gifts
The liquid droplets like frozen crystals born in vast polar oceans
Whirling freely around the universe in cosmogyral timelessness
Centering around the axis straight through my wandering mind
Nacreous clouds of rainbow strewn colors stream into view
While nepheliads play the haunting sounds on an Aeolian harp
And Zeus bears the sky on his shoulders in somber atmosophere
I dream of iridescent ethereal attractions to starrify beyond eternity

Wow! Another beautiful write - I haven't taken the time to watch the stars or clouds in a while. Prob. the last time was with my granddaughter a few yrs. ago. Will have to do again...

And you and me - we both love the thought of these cosmogyral journeys... with you being the brave one, I'd love to tag along!! super
