European River Cruise
Sailing Amsterdam’s canals, boat’s
glass top splits light of carmine sun
spun clouds~~
Rhine river’s steep slopes soak vineyard’s
wine to time wracked castle's ghost-shot
cloud burst~~
Austria’s Sound of Music hills
doe ray me, descanting nimbus
cloudscape~~
Baroque ceiling angels painted
frosted gold are Angel Falls through
rose clouds~~
Cruising the Main-Danube Canal
thirty two year’s building sweats in
cloud’s quench~~
Vienna’s concert’s arias
soar Mozart and Strauss as bird's wings
stretch clouds~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cobblestones too are my viewed clouds
as wispy tufted streaks puff-ball 'plane’s
window~~
Returning to Poetfreak’s home
'plane's condensation trail sweeps tears
of love~

You have taken me back to my many visits to Europe and painted a picture of outstanding beauty. The canals of Amsterdam, the concerts in Vienna and cobblestones everywhere! Your poem has opened my memory bank and filled my heart with much joy this morning!!

Itoo was in Amsterdam last year Karin, picture perfect on the threshold of spring, but you have brought to life all the beautiful European famous places which I have only read about or seen on Discovery. Your work always makes me smile as you weave magic.

Beautiful cruise along the rivers. Now we have shared some of the same experiences. Each stanza evokes a lot of images. Interesting that you mentioned the cobblestones.
