Ambient temperature on planet earth produces clouds that raise the dew point. Scientifically this is the gist of a cloud, yet I see a cloud as a cotton ball unfurled and unencumbered resembling cotton candy undyed, bleached white sometimes in the hue of gray like storm clouds caught amongst shades of blue sky. I quell the unrest of flying with the cloud surfing that I do when I gaze out a window. Searching for a face or space to fill the frame. I am a cloud surfer and I long to surf in the clouds, living in a home with an unobstructed view is one way to surf without flying.
I like that the poet accepts and states the scientific explanation for clouds and then moves on to the real meaning of clouds in her/his life. S/he tells us about cloud surfing and has a bit of longing for it, planning for it and through description entices others to be cloud surfers. Nice!
