Challenge
Emotion: Ambedo
n. a kind of melancholic trance in which you become completely absorbed in vivid sensory details—raindrops skittering down a window, tall trees leaning in the wind, clouds of cream swirling in your coffee—briefly soaking in the experience of being alive, an act that is done purely for its own sake

.
Write short prose or poem expressing this emotion. Regardless of which on you choose it has to be expressed within 6 to 12 sentences ( prose) or lines (prose or poem).
I'll be doing four more of these challenges later. Thank you Thought Catalog for gathering these wonderful words. May the games begin!

On the 18th of January, I'll be starting Nodus Tollens as my Emotion challenge.
Clouds
Sitting on a hill covered in a fine morning dew, my neck cranes towards the sky.
Clouds overhead, they twist and turn. Some sprout faces while others merge into new creatures. A dog. Then, an elephant.
They are perpetually amorphous.
They make me ponder. Maybe we can learn from these clouds.
Sometimes I think too much.
