Malignant Clouds

THIS POEM IS NOT PRESENTED AS I INTENDED (ie. DOUBLE SPACED).

THIS HAS BEEN DONE BY PERSONS BEYOND MY CONTROL

THUS DIMINISHING THE READING EXPERIENCE.

🙈

Clouds loom drifting, passing by,

The west wind gently tempts them on

Though no one knows what cause them cry

And no one hears their pleading voice

As all their acid tears well dry.

Snowy white, in rank and file,

The south wind warmly glides them far;

Smiling wryly all the while

Natant high above the earth

Ambling on, mile after mile.

Alluring to the offhand glancer

The east wind briskly chafes them forth

Skittering like the showtime dancer

Yet hidden deep within their breast

A growing rude and covert cancer.

But nature's wrath will bid her toll

The north wind casts the clouds astray

Freezing, breezing, pole to pole,

The stricken, tainted, wisps will wane ~

Dare no one care to save their soul?

So now as time is dwindling low

As the ill winds clime their worst

The poisoned rains, in flooding flow,

Rape our land to end mankind ~

And still, the winds shall wanton blow.
