Wow!

In an attempt to outdo my friend A.J. in her spectacular image of a cloud emerging from a god-spot, I took a couple of shots through my window.

Just between us, her picture was better.
Postscript: When asked to explain myself by my friend MSG: “A god-spot is my way of seeing that little halo in the midst of the clouds.

It's a continent,
Those groups
Of clouds, at
Rest in a gray
Sky. Hunched
Together as if
To form a map.
Directions to
Climbing this
Mountain run,
This Everest,
This widest of
Rivers, forded
And travelled,
These trails,
These byways,
These prairies,
Are purely in
The imagination
Of this traveller.

A continent un-
Folded, drawn
And redrawn in
A demarcation
That has no firm
Boundaries, as
It floats across
A clear pale sky.
If I were to climb
Or wander the
Pillowing mounds
Or if I could row
Over the billows
Would my feet
Fall softly or find
Their footing lost?
