I wish I owned a cloud

A dark shady cloud
Like a stale corpse wrapped in grey-black shroud
Deep within the spirits dance
Cloaked in their murky gown
Look there it goes, grows, rises, dips and drowns
Strips, splits,  drools and frowns
Builds its own air castle and a town
Far so low on my planet green and brown
Wandering around goes a baby kid
With no friends no toys in the surrounds
He looks up
Wonders if the sky really has no bounds
Glances at the cloud
Not one, there are so many more
And they make a world of their own
It seems so soft
Waving like a witch’s hair tuft
Dark in fury yet so calm
The stillness hooks me with a gaze
I want no house on the land
I wish I owned a little cloud.
