Such a rich word painting imbued with captivating images of all the things clouds are...if only we pause long enough to gaze at their glorious shape-shifting!

I was so enchanted, the acrostic form became secondary to the sheer beauty of the poem!

The very best acrostics, in my opinion, are as softly woven as this...

    Hi Karenina,

    Oh, so good to hear from you today. Thank you for a most warm and complimentary review. I am so glad you felt my acrostic worthy of praise.

    I love clouds, always had a thing for clouds, lol. On a good ?Cumulus Day? with a capital ?C?, I could look up for hours from a summer hammock and watch the shape shifters paint pictures.

    Thanks again, Karenina ❤️

    I'm with you. Loved to lay on summer grass as a child and "imagine" the animals and objects I'd see in the clouds above! Still do love it! Thankfully, I have grandkids so I can still get away with it without having someone report me for dementia! LOL---Karenina

Brilliantly awesome with a kaleidoscope of color.... My granddaughters and I sit on the deck and watch the clouds drift by....(we only have the river but it is gorgeous enough for us). They each discover something totally different and their excitement thrills my heart. Thanks for sharing. Smiles, Carol

    Hi Carol,

    Oh, yes I can gaze for hours at the clouds build and dissipate and build up again, shape shifting across the sky. I wish I had a river to gaze out on ?

    Thank you for a superb review and kind words.

    Have a great day,

The lovely painting and your beautiful words make for a lyrical presentation. The acrostic form is difficult to make flowing but you have skillfully achieved it, with richly descriptive turns of phrase that evoke the scene most artistically.

As a painter, I have rendered many paintings of clods as they are seem at all times of the day and in all seasons. You have painted a wonderful picture using delightful words. Thanks for sharing. Good luck!

"Cloud Pictures", is an extremely well-written and delightfully descriptive piece. Penned with craft and skill. This talented poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review. Good luck with the contest. My fingers are crossed for you!

great acrostic poem. Adrift in awe, above you--Dancing dream worlds imagined for a courtly King. For God, the King, the creator of the dream worlds, resplendent for his courtly glory? Are you witnessing a "sculptor," or a "painter" with his brush softly creating out of a limitless palette? Nuanced colors, you are enthralled in the eternal now, mindful of each shadow. Every nuance shadowed, every light brushed replete
Splendidly cast color pallets, brilliant incomparable gifts. You see beyond the awe of the scene to the awesomeness of the artist, the gift giver.

This work has reached the exceptional level

Excellent.
This is how I like to see acrostic poems written.
Many use static sentences, and the flow is stagnated or simply does not exist.

You weave each line into each, the way it should be. It creates imagery, space and time, giving the reader a view from the soul of the composition.

Despite it being so difficult to do, the imagery, full of colours and movement is above excellent.

It is funny we both wrote about clouds on the same day, without knowing it, and this is impressive. This deserves to be up there battling for the win.

It deserves a crown.
Bravo.
