Mountains In The Making

Driving home at dusk today, I

suddenly saw

a mountain on

the road ahead.

How, I thought, could a mountain just

appear? I knew

it wasn’t there

before. But as

I blinked in puzzlement, I saw

afresh. I’d been

making mountains

out of dark clouds.

    What fun! As usual. And I make mountains out of dark clouds even more often than out of molehills. Thanks!

    Joan; I just didn’t expect this ending! You surprised me, and I liked that, and the analogy of mountains (insurmountable?) being like dark clouds; beautiful.
