Far clouds of feathery gold, Shaded with deepest purple,
gleam Like islands on a dark blue sea.
~ Percy Bysshe Shelley

I think it's funny that clouds and clowns sound so much alike, but are so different. Clouds are nice and soft and gentle and pretty. Clowns are mean and edgy and nasty and ugly. Stormclouds might sound scary, but - let's face it - not NEARLY as scary as stormclowns. Or thunderclowns.
And we all know not every clown has a silver lining.
Man, I hate clowns.
And, just as I posted this, an ad came up on the blog site about circus camp. How freaky is that? Now I just scared myself.
