I sometimes stare at the clouds They are so beautiful...aren't they? The residents of the sky Rulers of the vast sky Constantly travelling They take various shapes and sizes Some small patches Some big formations They sport different colours Some white Some grey Decorating the blue sky And giving it a different look Everyday when the sun rises and sets behind the clouds The visual is simply breathtaking I especially love it when the sun plays peekaboo with the clouds Then at night the moon peeps out from behind the clouds And gives the night sky a whole new meaning Of course there are those days and nights when the clouds overpower the sun and the moon One thing i envy about clouds is that they seem to have so much time on their hands Never in no hurry Slowly moving across the azure sky Almost teasing everyone's hopes Will it pour today? Some days are the bad days The clouds flatter to deceive While there are some days when the clouds fulfill their promises Lightning flashes across the sky Followed by the sounds of thunder And then when they burst out And the first drop kisses the earth... ....it's sheer magic!!! Washing away the dirt Almost cleansing the earth of it's impurities And satisfying it's soul
