Clouds Talking To Me

"Pretty clouds filled with water, then it rains down." By Poet I love to sit and watch the clouds, as they dance across the big blue sky. If I watch and wait what will I see, animals like a zoo walking by. One day I ask a big bright white cloud, where are you going? I was shocked when it answered back, off to play it replied to me. I did not know clouds could talk, then I heard back-as a rule we don't. I asked-how can pretty clouds rain down? We get sad from traveling over the world, when we have had enough then we rain tears down.

Used to lie in the grass and talk to the clouds or with my sister about their formations. Now I sit in my swing and look for shapes of animals, people, objects... A beautiful piece, Paula. I enjoyed the sparks you inspired in my past.

Paula congratulations on your winning clouds. My mom wrote her son's a letter and hid it and found it after she passed. She said when we look up in the sky and we see the clouds it is her smiling down on us. Your cloud poem made me think of those words she wrote for us. Thank you Dear Paula for sharing I have been busy with my brother's house and haven't been on the Soup. Hugs...

This feels surreal! I indeed love watching the sky too; however, if a cloud told me that it rained when it got tired of traveling the world, I would probably think I was schizophrenic. Haha, I might be taking this too literally... regardless, a beautiful piece. Have a great day, dear poet :)
