Sky Pieces
From horizon to horizon to horizon,
In three hundred sixty degrees of multiplying infinities,
My eyes contemplate completing the shifting image
Of this mid-May Lake Nebagamon Friday sky
But get perplexed, bewildered, trying to figure out
Whether the thousands of slowly moving gray-white clouds
Are the spaces in the jigsaw puzzle yet to be fitted in
And the intermittently breaking-through blue hues
The afternoon's endlessly disclosing pieces,
Or if the reverse holds the truth to my vision's overview.
Everyone hoping to lose himself to solitude
Should be faced with such sublime puzzlement,
Compelled to ponder the cosmos, question the design,
For the rest of his days' speculations.
