Clouds – Poem of the Month – April 2023

Posted byChristine BoltonPosted inBlog, Nature, Poem of the MonthTags:, ,

Clouds

flocculent clouds
puffed in the sky
giant marshmallows
tempting the eye

an east wind moving them
beyond the line of vision
dividing the horizon
with a precise incision

sun covered momentarily
perhaps making a prediction
only to reappear
with courage of its conviction

as twilight arrives
at its inevitable time
Nature’s shift begins
its internal rhyme

Linda Lee Lyberg is hosting Open Link Night at D’Verse.  I reworked a poem I wrote about 5 years ago.  I wrote it in rhyme as that is how nature sometimes talks to me ☺️

  4. Lovely poem Christine, beautiful writing!! 🙂 I invite you to come read my OLN offering tonight on my site — and to experience my wife Kathy’s profound love affair with nature, which is currently hampered by her newly discovered cancer. She goes into the UW Fred Hutch Cancer Center April 22nd for a multi-hour regimen of robotics surgery on her neck and throat area. Post Op will put her in ICU for Four days. Please keep Kathy, my love, in your thoughts. Thank you… ✌🏼🕊🫶🏼❣️
