"W" is for Wonder - #A to Z Blogging Challenge

"W" is for Wonder in the A to Z Blogging Challenge. What word could be more appropriate for the seeker who wonders about everything--people, the world, the universe, the earth beneath one's feet? Today's little painting from the "Spirit Visions" series reminds me of the view from the window of  a big jet, flying above the clouds. What we see from above is amazing and always causes me to wonder.

Wonder

Where, what, why, I wonder.

Wide and wild and wondrous,

Wakening to a vision that rambles

In disarray towards journey's end.

In vibrant wonder, I stand

Seeing and seeking the light,

Sometimes reaching for it,

Just beyond my touch.

One day the clouds will rise higher,

And I shall see them expand,

Always hiding their own secrets

They will not reveal to me.

Forever, I am watching and listening

To a language I do not know

And a vision I do not see

All lost within the clouds.
