To Be a Cloud

I'd like to be a cloud that flies
Above the earth, across the skies.
That looks upon the varied scene
Of gold and brown, of blue and green
And if outside of Heaven's door,
The angels swoop and sometimes soar,
Perhaps they'd like to rest upon
A fluffy cloud, to stretch and yawn.
To take a nap while floating there,
With breezes tangling their hair.

Perhaps a mountain top just might
Persuade me to remain all night,
Snagged upon the top and resting,
While the moon is slowly cresting.
Illuminating peaks and hills,
As every vale and valley fills
With shadows dark and dense that hide,
Everything that hides insde.
I'd travel onward the next day
Until the wind blew me away
And I would wander back to see
If God could use a cloud like me!

(smiles) Oh Betty, this is soooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I too just love that wonderful feeling of floating and seeing the world beneath while being guided by heavens light from its door above! (kiss on cheek) This is a beautiful graceful poem, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Betty, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Noah:  Thanks for your nice comments.  I often dream that I am flying and suddenly realized what it is like, perhaps, to be a cloud.
