Clouds Poem by Fahim Sayed

Clouds



Flying in the air
Through childhood fantasies,
Making friends with clouds
I recall those memories.

These snowy magical things,
Floating above us all
Who made them?
And how do they crawl.

I see them bringing the thunder,
I see them bring the rain,
They make an amazing sight,
Unbelievable frame

Now; I see them face to face
Tempted to hug them; an embrace,
I wish I could float with them,
Perhaps challenge them for a race.

Get them to play,
Songs of peace we’ll sing,
Hopping from one to another,
And on the smallest I’ll swing.

Pity, this experience is not possible;
without commercial aid.
I wish my body could fly;
as my imagination does.

Clouds of beauty Breasts of Milk Greying black to shower us white cooling bulbs pillows of passion floating in the air full of life and ocean.

The same old story - we always want what we can't have. And yet, there's always hoping, right? I adored it, and could visualise every word! ! ! Great write!
