Ocean of Clouds

A vast landscape with lush green hills is enveloped in a blanket of mist. The sky above is clear and hints of morning light are visible. Photographed across the street from where I live, on the Cumberland Plateau of Tennessee.

Poem

An ocean of clouds
Waves washing ashore
Set sail with the sun
Endeavor, explore
