Clouds Ephemeral
Miles away, it seems I could tear you like tissue 
Or pull your puffs apart,
But when you come down around me there's nothing to touch.

You spread your blanket or stretch your tendrils in the wind, 
Shifting your shape to suit your mood, as ephemeral 
as your wisps of white or grey.
- Karen Siegel
