You come up over the hill
And there
On the horizon below 
Is a giant wall of
Puffy cumulus clouds

It surprises you that word
Cumulus
Where had it been living in your brain
To appear just like that
When was the last time you even thought about clouds? 
Someone once told you
You would never remember the names of
Clouds

The way the peak glows
The dark ominous base
The immensity of it
The unexpectedness of it 
Takes your breath away.
