Excerpt of The Departure by Michael Parker

Michelle and Pris do such a great job either using pictures to introduce their poetry or to be the muse.

My friend Kim sent a link to Jorn Olsen's amazing pictures of mammatus clouds that hung over Hastings, Nebraska in June of 2004.  I thought it would be fun to get your opinion of these incredible formations in the form of a poem.  Click here to see all of the other incredible shots.

So go to it.  Write me a poem.  You might have to E-mail the poem as the Comments box requires you to use HTML code to keep paragraph styles in tact.
