Out My Office Window

I was looking out my office window the other day,
thinking that the clouds were particularly pretty
because of the light and shadows and interesting formations.

I thought, "I should take a picture,
just for fun,"
when I noticed a smudge out there in the clouds.

I wondered if that smudge was a distant airplane,
and where those on-board were traveling off to.
What great adventure awaited them?

But when I changed my focus,
I came to realize
that the smudge was an
altogether different kind
of adventurer.

"Rest your wings, little bug.
It looks like a storm is about to kick up."
