MOUNTAINS IN THE CLOUD

MOUNTAINS IN THE CLOUD There are mountains in the cloudPlains and valleys too Climbing and cruising at an altitudeMind, like weather in turbulent timesA state with corresponding attitudeThrough the desert or the sea, when the sun shines There are mountains in the cloudPlains and valleys too Look right, look left, if you get the jokeLike in life tossing up and down in motion,Rushing through, you will see them pokeIn a gathering storm, where you get your portion

Mountains in the Clouds

Hello my friend I fly a lot and always insist on a window seat. Being a writer and artist. I love to watch as i cannot sleep. To see the sun go down and the moon rise and again the sunrise. These awesome scenes stay with me. I look into the clouds and see complete new worlds untouched by man. I see a glacier of deep blue caves, I want to be the first to explore but only me as i am the only one that exists in this vision. The wonderment pictures in the clouds only seen by me. Stay with me, inspire me to write and draw etc. Thank you for sharing this beautiful poem Maggie Electric blue

Hello Maggie,

Thank you also for sharing the window seat experience . I find it a little difficult to describe what I see, in other words, how I feel up there. Sometime, I see these things, thinking in my native language and before I could translate them into English, I missed the essence. So I end up not writing a presentable work, non the less I keep on writing. Best wishes. T.
