A Floating Cloud Lost Its Way...
A floating cloud
Lost its way
And found me
I held this gift of nature,
In my hands, folded it,
Put in my pocket
And in the silence of night,
Quietly before slumber struck
Tore it into small pieces
Filled them in my pillow
And then resting my head on it
Went to deep sleep, smiling
In my dreams
I found myself having become
A floating cloud,
Happily wandering
with the cluster
Lit in the moonlight
Chattering with the stars
In the vastness of skies
Yet a constant fear
Tagged along
What if I lost my way,
What if I lost my way...

I like this one, too. We can never truly abandon ourselves.
ReplyDeletewhat a way to express... the way you have defined the fear of 'being lost'. Applauds.

oh, to be a floating cloud - what a lovely thought
ReplyDeleteI think the part about losing your way is sort of mixing/adding reality, which I think it's true of all creatures - losing one's way is always one thought away
I love the idea of a lost cloud floating along waiting to be found...and this poem floats as well. Lovely!
