A Fluffy White Stairway
Gazing above
At the faint fluffy clouds
I see a narrow stairway
Ascending into the sky
I wonder
What happens
At the top of the stairs
Beyond the open doorway
Will the outlook
Be dazzling white
Or a panorama
Of just black

A brilliant, thought-provoking, ponder-ful trio…photo, poem and song! 🙂
Yes, I wonder such things, too. I hope it’s dazzling white…and then on into a land of bright colors. 🙂
Hope you and Sir Frankie are having a happy day, Ivor! 🙂

Yes Ben Howard is wonderful singer/songwriter … l’m not sure what it meant but my cloudy stairway diminished quickly… and my vision evaporated … ?? .. oh darn. Daylight saving has started this morning… I’m an hour behind already … and the wind is howling outside 🌏🤗😍🐶📕😞

Thank you Ryan … I the cloud photo, and then the prompt “Just Black” came up … and my vision flowed from there … and I think we all wonder what happens at the top of the stairway
