Morning Fog

She was torn on whether to wear
the blue of the sky or the blue
of the ocean.  She tried each on
for a day in public and all her 
friends and relations declared
she looked better in sky
as they were fascinated 
by the white, animal-shaped clouds 
that constantly crossed her irises.

—Kenneth P. Gurney, Albuquerque, NM
