Clouds

Wafting about in a robin’s-egg sky
the puffy pearl-coloured clouds form
as waves of milky strands stretching
among the azure ocean of the heavens . . .

Drifting there and nigh
like a Monet painting way up high
floating aimlessly all about,
our hearts melt to witness the beauty
among the lofty heights . . .

Come hither to me o’ splendid sights
your translucent bodies full of raindrops
which nourish the earth and nourish man
spilling over as a waterfall, as tears from Heaven. . .
