My muse: The clouds

Castellany Clouds

by Badger_29


This one is for my muse, she appears in mysterious ways . . .

Fluffy
cotton-candy clouds
super-imposed upon:
the imperial empyrean

Head in the vapour,
observer, gaper

Feet on the ground,
hanging around,
earth mother;
(no others;
silence abounds)

Feeling physically fit,
my mind scribing a writ,
a bit of worthy wit

Thirsty thoughts
entwined,
I don't mind:
I find, as I unwind,
~~~
 I'll go my own way,

 respite for the day
Pondering
her way

And to
this moment,
~
be consigned . . .

dictionary.com for the word meanings, and to Kingsrookviii for the excellent review and advice.

When I say "her way", I have achieved the rare and obscure double entendre`, as I mean mother earth, and my muse.
