VIEW FROM WATERCREST ST. Clouds that look like something            A novice wedding baker                     Would pipe onto a cake Spread themselves across       The distant mountain tops                    In swooping shades of                             Peach and cobalt blue. The sheet cake of           Remaining sky                 Resembles Blueberry Yogurt                         Swirled with apricot jam. As quickly as this          Wondrous dawning scene                                Appears, it fades To ordinary morning           Clouds, and sky that hints                       Of rainstorms and                                         Humidity. What did I do yesterday           That earned me                       This reward today. ljm
