No curtains open,
no music plays,
no corps de ballet
on the rocky stage.
The only spotlight
is the sun,
to highlight
the faint wisps
that twist
and pirouette
drift upwards
and beyond:
clouds dancing
on a blue background.
Kim M. Russell, 2017
My response to Sue Vincent’s Daily Echo Thursday photo prompt – Wisp #writephoto
writing in north norfolk 
I hadn’t read any of the replies on Sue’s blog when I did my own post Strange, but I chose to do a poem, too. I’d bet that you looked at the picture and that’s the way it came out, too.
