Flying above the Clouds

rrodriguez

 

Flying above the clouds,
Arrayed like the Alps,
Glazed with sugary snow.
I hear a delicate hum—
Hypnotizing in the silence—
Gliding through the boundless sky.

The morning haze gives up
And disappears.
The sky is bare above,
Stretching to a dark blue hue.

Below, the world is still—
The ocean awakens joyfully.
Fish rise to see
The clouds waltzing around:
Nature's choreography at dawn,
A dance orchestrated
By the break of day.

    Yes! I used to, as a child, plan how to gather some into a ziplock bag for the next flight. Beautiful. πŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š

          A limerick, perhaps.

              Here’s three to choose from:
              Above the clouds I used to soar, As a child, I'd dream even more, To ziplock the skies, And bottle their highs, For flights I'd adore and explore.

              As a child, I'd plan and delight, To gather clouds all fluffy and light. In a bag they would stay, For the next flight away, My pockets brimming with flight's white.

              Above the clouds I used to spy, As a child, how they drift and go by. With a ziplock in hand, I'd gather their band, And save a fluffy piece of the sky.
