Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

i am a cloud and when i cry it rains

glacial
hand movements
a tracking shot 
slow motion sparkler tails
write your name in the midnight air
watch as the ashes disperse
the last thing you ever did
was ask a question
maybe you will find the answer
in sweet dreamless sleep

Hi Stu,

Another fabulous title Stu.

A magical realist vibe; I'm a sucker for this kind of verse. You evoke images so beautifully, effortlessly..

Thanks for sharing.

Born and lives in the imagination where it is entirely at home, Stu. A bit of magic!

I like that Stu.
A wonderful idea expressed so succinctly.
You were pretty economic with words there.
