A very nice poem. A hand-in-hand effort to enjoy life and the company of each other. So many ways to present such wonder. Your poem provide a very nice vision of that journey.

The imagery this poem provides is outstanding. In just a few well chosen words you've included the raging river, mountains, endless sky, wind, and finally the comfort of billowy clouds. Stunning.

This is a heartfelt poem to your beloved departed wife. One could tell without you stating it that it was a love poem. The text is an okay size. The message shows a longing to once more do activities together, and more importantly to just be in each other's presence. Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

"Sit on a Cloud" by Willie P. Smith is an exceptional love poem which finds its power in activities chosen for their beauty, stimulation, and overall combination of grandeur and excitement. It's written in the first person plural, with 'we' as the operating subject throughout the poem. The poem's ending occurs in paradise, where the couple sit in a cloud, a place redolent of comfort and far-reaching vision.

This is a simple statement of wishing for or hopes and dreams to come true along with what Heaven might be like.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Good luck in the contest.

This poem is beautifully written. In my mind, I feel like the author has done a great job at describing how partnership works in life. Two people who respect and love each other,simply doing life together. I hope to one day find this partnership in my life.

-Nice artwork and good presentation, Willie.
-You wrote a very good poem for your wife.
-Effective imagery and rhyme.
-I like all of the nature imagery,
like riding "the eagle as it soars" and
"We'll walk on rainbows, ride the wind."
-This is a lovely love poem, and
I like the concluding line.
It is very romantic.

A wonderful, and understandable, tribute to your wife. Nice soft meter and rhyme, easy to read and, for a man in his 45th year of marriage, I can relate. She has voiced some distress at sharing anything like a cloud with my dogs, however...
