I Dream Of Clouds...

Just to let everyone know... Stellans Dad has been back home for a couple of weeks now! He is recuperating slowly and healing after his emergency surgery and extended hospital stay after his appendix ruptured several weeks ago. Thank you to all of you who put him in their thoughts and prayers ....

Below is a gift I am sending Stellans Dad as a get well present. I have a thing for clouds, I have a huge file of cloud photographs and these are just two of them. Written around the outside of them are two quotes/poems.

Clouds come floating into my life no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add colour to my sunset sky.

- Rabindranath Tagore

Wake up from your dreaming of soft sunlight flooding your world,

of the gentle music that plays in your head,

of gardens filled with flowers of white and shapes of clouds that tell you a story.

- Stellan

i dream of clouds

of cumulus towers in the warm tropical air

i fall in love with the streaks

across the blue of a late summer sunset

i live for the puff balls scattered across

the ocean of the sky on a hot summer afternoon

i wish to recreate the memories of colour

splashed across a mid winter sky at sunset

i drown in the operatic display of first light

as it plays across the oceans surface

i lose my self in the scattered remains of wind swept

clouds as they streak the mountain air

i daydream about our future

as i watch the sun dance upon your face

and all the clouds of my past are lifted

i see only love splashed across my horizon
