Clouds

Harbingers of vague and powerful visions

evocateurs of sublime meaning

Shaping and reshaping, like a drop of ink dancing in a clear glass of water

Fluid sculptures, whimsical shapeshifters, playing to the expectations of ten thousand onlookers and never disappointing even one

Viewed by the eye, but shaped by the mind, whispy and unpredictable and holy.

Being all things to all people, clouds reveal the wisdom of the ages, then dance away in foolish glee.
