..... This bright morning. The sky was clear blue with patches of the cirrus clouds, here and there and no sight at all of the cumulus or the rain clouds, so it is going to be a fine day but hot and dry..... Well.. I learn about clouds during my Boy Scout's days and that is how I came to know of those names of the clouds and it still makes me happy to see all those clouds changes its shapes and move slowly, as they like... below the blue sky... Hovering over tall buildings and among the dense green tropical forest... When we are traveling on airplanes, the patches of white spongy clouds, the cumulus limbos woud lay majestically just below us, like a carpet of white fluffy cotton..., a sight that I love to see when traveling and about would be the other clouds which includes the cirrus clouds, always high above, breaking the monotony of those clear blue sky.... harmonising itself into a beautiful works of arts. In the tropic we seldom see a really blue sky.... like in those desert area of the Middle East.... It is somehow always with patches of this and that clouds... That's what makes the sky in the tropic interesting to watch as it changes its patterns into all sorts of shapes and sizes..... Sometime in our childhood.... We would imaging the shapes of things, in those white clouds.... some look like the shapes of animals, it all how you look at those white clouds....... It wild one's imaginations... And that's what makes clouds watching interesting... For the young are always full of imaginations and seeing those clouds changes it shapes in front of your eyes, make us wonder and appreciate more and more of the wonders of nature.....
