Gypsy, this is a sweet cloud haiku that reminds me of one by Billy Collins:
In the summer sky
a cloud with its mouth open
eats a smaller cloud.
Clouds have been the subjects of inspiration for poets for ages, and you have done an exceptional job here. Your poem is imaginative and dream-like. Alliteration of S, C, and M enhanced the smoothness of the read. Your poem refreshes me on a cloudless day. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Gypsy
This Haiku poem was truly wonderful, a sweet density of sound, flowered with gorgeous imagery, and an earthly connection that marries heart and mind.
The voice is soft and peaceful and just pulls me in with my arms wide open.

I love the imagery in those slow moving sugar cotton clouds:) The use of sojourn in the last line is also good. Nice satori and overall picture painted.

This is a cool little haiku friend, the visuals conjured up in the mind's eye are delightful... you know New Zealand's Maori name it Aotearoa which means - The land of the long white cloud.

I'm sorry you are feeling depressed, Gypsy, it's the worst feeling in the world. I've only had a serious bout once, and that was enough. I love your haiku, my friend, I love the sweet cotton clouds and the molasses, they make for a wonderful haiku. I hope you feel better soon. :) Sandra xx

Just my luck here - I just read Tom Bowling's whatsommacallit with gravity and the universe, so my head is still working out how stupid I am. Then the next post in my inbox is yours, MariVal. A haiku.
Clouds and sweet sojourn, when Tom just gave me some travelling universe with gravity? I think I'll rest my case for this evening, dearest.

Oh yes, perfectly done and I can imagine the clouds that you describe. With the words of descripton and the words of action, making them the slow moving fantasy
