Clouds
At home the clouds have no
bottoms cut off by magic knife,
they are soft, fluffy, white and
like me have shades of grey.
Happy clouds, quiet clouds,
relaxed, not moving clouds.
Bathed in sunshine, they are
clouds I want to see.
Glad to be here clouds.
Altogether nice clouds
No place like home clouds.
Clouds I need to stay.

Clouds as a metaphor is a wonderfully creative idea and makes me feel all fluffy and warm. Home is where the heart is and I can see you adore your home Bob~

A lovely, soothing, picturesque description of clouds here in this beautiful verse. Thank you, Bob for sharing. I wish to share a quote on clouds by Richard Bach: “A cloud does not know why it moves in just such a direction and at such a speed...It feels an impulsion...this is the place to go now. But the sky knows the reasons and the patterns behind all clouds, and you will know, too, when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons.”
