Click hereA cold fall day, strong northwest wind
Blows across the waters of the great lake
Still warm from the summer
In the center of the lake
Clouds form quickly right out of the blue
Thicken and staying white on top,
Become darker underneath
Standing on the shore they roll toward you
As they flow over you
Each has some impression - beauty, threat, or rain
They go over and into your past
A Beautiful and awe inspiring sky
Lil’ Bit, put your jacket on against the wind
Pull up the hood when it rains
Acknowledge the impact of the past
then put it where it belongs
Keep your face toward the blue
It is so beautiful oldbear! I especially liked the middle stanza, "each has some impression..." I love the analogy between the past and the storm. Lovely!
.... I'd tighten and prune this a little but it is descriptive and moody. I'd like to have some back story on "Li'l Bit" who kind of pops out of nowhere considering she/he's a late arrival center piece.

Beautiful visual, and thought provoking as I remember standing on shores myself as thoughts rolled through me and I turned my face away.
What a beautiful poetic collection of words to describe succinctly a particular mood of Nature !!
