  1. roll clouds
    the tumbling words
    of our goodbyes

    curdled clouds
    she dresses the baby
    for her funeral

    cloud watching we reshape our dreams

  2. seeking clarity
    jumbled thoughts cloud judgement
    white noise

    striking against blue
    rugged peaks atop cloud bank
    mountaineers challenge
