Imagery is cool, don't you think? (Imagery is a poetic device which means to create images/sceneries in the reader's mind)
☁️☁️☁️
It is the middle of winter
The sky is lined by an array of clouds
Big ones and small ones
Beautifully arranged, one after the other.
Not one cloud is lonely
Each surrounded by more
Like a drop of water in the ocean
Encircled by a million other drops
One cloud, bounded by a million more.
How beautiful! Glory to the Creator!A million narrows down to a thousand
But the cloud, the one in the middle
It is still surrounded, it is happy.
A thousand narrows to a hundred
Few drops of rain fall from the middle
But it is okay, it is happy.
A hundred to ten
The cloud starts to shake
What will it do when ten becomes one?
How will it survive?
Ten.....nine.....eight.....seven
The cloud shivers
Six.....five.....four.....three
It hangs on
Two............
It is no longer happy
..................................one
Vast blue sky, a single white cloud.The one which used to be in the middle
It sheds half of its weight
Willing for the others to come back
But they can't, not right now
Maybe one day, but not right now.It is the end of winter
The sky contains a single cloud
Small and shedding, but floating still
All alone, without support
How surprising! Glory to the Creator!☁️
Thanks for reading!
