We Who Make the Clouds Cry

Clouds
kiss the sun
Shadows
sweep the Earth
The world
turns a shade blue

Some
scramble
Others
hide
Reaching for those umbrellas

But

don’t you wonder
As wierd
as it may sound
That maybe
Just maybe
the clouds are just
lonely

And our fear
Our dismay
Is what brings the sky to tears?

I’ll kiss them
I’ll grow wings
And fly up high
To give those big blue clouds a hug
That’s all they need

They just want a heart
To see them
And smile
To think they,
As blue and threatening they may seem,
Are beautiful

Yes, they’re blue
But
Look again
When they flee the scene
Chasing the sun
Over the hills
They blush,
Yes
They do,
With happiness
With sweet pink
For someone
like me
Looked up
Smiled
And appreciated
A lonely
Blue
cloud

Lovely write.

I love the thought of blushing clouds at twilight. Very nice imagery.

Nicely done. I've had a lot of dreams about flying amidst the clouds. This poem captured their essence perfectly.
