Clouds rush together
Parading in their coats
White clouds for dreams
Grey clouds for wounded hearts
Black clouds for tears outpoured
In their glorious coats they gather
Like the wings of guardian angels
Rushing in to sustain the heavens
A sky to find the shape of our dreams
A sky defining the earth’s harvest
Shadows of doubts moving on earth
Billowing thoughts in a tempest blow
The thunder of Nature unleashed
The joy of Water renewing each life
Clear skies are a tapestry for clouds
A cycle of life, replenishing purpose
Coats of many colors in one heaven
