Aren’t white flouffy clouds against a Spring blue sky just THE BEST?
Was I just hungry?
I don’t know
Veggie Straws! I forgot to pack the Veggie Straws
or in this week’s case, the veggie chips.
But the animated fluff ball from children’s cartoons?
I let it out!
And it floated faaaaar away…
Poor cumulus-ness prisoner all these years.
Cloud pain, “bye-bye!” on a cloudy day.
Or day of big cloud,
Turns into grey shroud.
It’s supposed to rain but not yet.
Cloud removal is a delicate procedure
Cloud reft from my heart
Cloud which covers the heart
Once released plays FOREVER!
Cumulus Criticism Cloud drifts over the local soccer field
Giggles as it bumps its soft self-up against other massive cotton balls of joy
Drifts
Shapeshifts
Oh! It was supposed to rain…
Greyness plans to wring itself out later
some good ol’ April showers,
We’ve got the power!
Several gorgeous sunny spring days
So go ahead, help make it rain
I had no idea how exhausted you were
Once you got out and went up there
No strings,
Freeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
No strings,
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
All I ask is that you remember me from time to time and never truly dissipate.
Please?
And I completely understood your grey dinges today.
Everybody’s doing it.
You just want to play with other cloud kids.
Forty- eight thousand droplet years
Forty-eight dears and a thousand fears.
Your floufiness,
Your malleability,
Your parting,
Your farting!
Reveal the big patches of blue sky and hot global warming sun
Is there anything greener that could have been done?
Of course, more, so woman, CCC, we are so indebted to you
Thank you for being you
I’ve got you, Critical Child Cloud
No matter how deafly loud
Blue skies you frolic upon
The canvas only you can decorate
Perfectly.
