SOFT SCULPTURE
by Daniel Green
Empty skies may be adorned with clouds,
as weather moves, sunlit sculptures crowned
with thunderheads or horse-tails shredded
by invisible winds fashion tattered patterns.
Scattered in no planned design, inconstant
shapes fly like Chinese kites suspended
from unseen siken filaments in every shade
From snowy white to gray and deepest black.
Gloomy days, when clouds congeal to overcast,
hide the sun, induce morose reflections, breed
despondency, press poets to melancholy.
