Head in the clouds

Perhaps it's because I'm a bit of a daydreamer that I so love looking at the sky and enjoying the clouds. I think these, today, are altocumulus / cirrocumulus. My first ever blip was of a dramatic November sky. This spring one inspires much more optimism. My best ever cloud photo, from some years back, appears in the Cloud Collectors' Reference section of the Cloud Appreciation Society's website. And the limerick below was first published on www.oedilf.com.

Cirrocumulus catches the eye:
Ice-particle clouds, way up high.
You may well lick your lips,
Adding salt to your chips,
But you can't eat a mackerel sky.
