The Clouds are Never StillA Poem by nunldoncloud inspired
I saw an elephant walking over Jesus. Jesus, on his back, with a beard like Santa Clause, was neither smiling nor frowning. I also saw the "Stay-Puft" marshmallow man, from the movie "Ghost Busters", seeming to smile and wave. These scenes were not unlike the American flag that I see before me now, with it's shiny, man-made materials, glistening in the afternoon sun. Straightening forth as the wind picks up and resting low as it dies (fainting in coils). Un-furling again in an endless cycle. The clouds are never still... Gorgeous, billowing, flowing, light and shadow, dissipating and growing, a crocodile in the nile. A heavenly respite from the heat and the light; the clouds are never still. Unsurpassed in its dignity and bearing, the sky, provides a host of fright and a feast of delight. As big as is the day, is how small we are compared to the night. © 2009 nunldonFeatured Review
