SkyWatch Friday: Angel wing cloud

Is it not? Is it not an angel wing cloud?
I thought so.
~*~
A fire mist and a planet --
A crystal and a cell, --
A jellyfish and a saurian,
And caves where cave men dwell;
Then a sense of law and beauty,
And a face turned from the clod --
Some call it Evolution,
And others call it God.
A haze on the far horizon,
The infinite, tender sky,
The ripe, rich tint of the cornfields,
And the wild geese sailing high;
And all over upland and lowland
The charm of the goldenrod --
Some of us call it Autumn,
And others call it God.
Like tides on a crescent sea beach,
When the moon is new and thin,
Into our hearts high yearnings
Come welling and surging in --
Come from the mystic ocean,
Whose rim no foot has trod --
Some of us call it Longing,
And others call it God.
A picket frozen on duty,
A mother starved for her brood,
Socrates drinking the hemlock,
And Jesus on the rood;
And millions who, humble and nameless,
The straight, hard pathway plod --
Some call it Consecration,
And others call it God.

Well, it is indeed an Angels wing when spelled properly! ........G. Happy Friday Gir.
It is! And it was waving hello to you!
I like the sunlight at the top of the cloud, then how the cloud dangles below!
It is beautiful, that wing of an Angel.
Thank YOU Jennifer for your compliment accompanied below my picture. You were such a delight to meet and I hope that our paths cross again soon.
FYI: I will be performing my Angel "Gabriel" Living Statue, at the Virginia Highland Festival. (1 st and 2nd of June.) Come see.
