It’s the clouds again, that has gathered around the far eastern corner of the city, a little grey, a little blue, a fragment of white hovering around. It’s 4 PM, as I sit by the window pane, foreseeing a blissful future, somewhere deep in the lap of nature, holding your hand, the fingers crossing and… Continue reading It’s the Clouds again….
