Clouds
They huff and puff across the sky
The children sit and wonder why
White and fluffy cotton balls
Ice cream castles, snowy halls,
And then the wind gets mad one day
It turns the clouds the color gray
It pours the cold rain down on them,
They sit and wonder if again,
White cloud ships will huff and puff
On pink and blue and all that stuff.
~Kathie circa 1970

Special sky shot and poem.
Oooh lovely. Looking out of a plane?

Congratulation with your first Sky Watch Friday-photo. You have a very nice photo and the poem is wonderful. Together it's perfect! Well done:)
Have a lovely weekend:)
I love your poem--fits the photo perfectly.
lovely cloud picture and once again a delightful poem.
Beautiful poem and an amazing sky photo!
Lovely cloud photo. In one of my earlier posts, you mentioned you did not know what the foil fill technique was. It's where I use aluminum foil taped to a piece of cardboard to reflect like back onto the subject. I use it on close ups to add light to the shadowed side of the subject. It would've worked well on the cactus photos you posted.
Your poem filled my mind with lovely pictures and thoughts. Thanks! The picture ain't bad either, Kathy! Great Skywatch post.
Lovely Poem!
I bet you do limericks too!
Great poem and love your picture:)
