Cloud-spotting: winged demon

Too cold days in the south of the world to lie in the grass and spot the cloud shapes; also some busy days to me to do the same.
Helped by GA's I could find a resemblance of a winged demon in the clouds; the recursion is visible, this particular zone of it made the magic.



Look at this for, like, representing the voice of the cloud-make winged demon, in the autumn of the world (image was made days ago, still in autumn, here)... he wants redemption, and he is sweet, :-) Tagore do not thought it as this, but is nice giving it the demon voice, for companionship of the image:


I am like a remnant of a cloud of autumn
uselessly roaming in the sky, O my sun ever-glorious!
Thy touch has not yet melted my vapor,
making me one with thy light,
and thus I count months and years separated from thee.

If this be thy wish and if this be thy play,
then take this fleeting emptiness of mine,
paint it with colors, gild it with gold,
float it on the wanton wind and spread it in varied wonders.

And again when it shall be thy wish to end this play at night,
I shall melt and vanish away in the dark,
or it may be in a smile of the white morning,
in a coolness of purity transparent.


Rabindranath Tagore, "Roaming Cloud".
