I wonder, is someone up there
Looking down at me here
With my feet on the ground
As I watch them up there
As they make their way
To somewhere else
Should we wave to each other?
Head In the Clouds – Look Up, Look down
Head in the Clouds Monday
Head in the clouds -wonders below
Sometimes we have to
Let our minds sail
Up on the winds
High in the sky
To understand
The real beauty
Beneath our feet
Head in the Clouds – A Man made Wonder?
Flying out of Phoenix
Headed south, before banking east
Out the window there appears
A large hole in the ground
Wasn’t sure what I was seeing
Either with the Circled hole
Or with the backgammon design ponds
What it was is a open pit copper mine abandoned in 1984
Which as of 2019, it was bought with plans to reopen
Now called the Cactus mine
For a sense of scale that pit is 3,100 ft. across and 980′ deep
Head in the Clouds Monday – Looking Out
There is always something unique to see
Thou I can’t say where I am
Or where I been
And if I was down there
I wouldn’t recognize
What I seen from the sky
There is a bit of sadness
As development works it way
Up the mountain
Even in the middle of nowhere
Head in The Clouds Monday
In the days when travel was easy
I always look for the window seat
For part of going some where
Is the distance we move to get there
And that makes the journey
So much more interesting
Please indulge me
As I share what I have observed
From my window seat
On “Head in the clouds Mondays”
