Cumulus Grace

The skies tell the story of the glory of God,
  the firmament proclaims the work of his hands;
day pours out the news to day,
  night passes to night the knowledge.
                                                  Psalm 18




The petals of clouds are opening
their beauty
in the vase of sky
on a table of countless stars
the day-blue doily hides:
their shadows
fleeting
over the runners of earth
patterning 
 dark and light
coming and going
here and 
not here
all afternoon
 cumulus grace
in no 
time.
