Behind the Clouds
Behind the Clouds
Is that your face I see in the clouds
Wearing a sapphire-studded crown
Soft winds usher changing formation
Each passing breeze, new revelation
A prince’s sad frown turns upside down
A joyful smile, witnessed from the ground
Only for a moment it endures
But I won’t forget that smile of yours
My head to pillow, it recreates
And wondrous dreams your smile generates
Some people say the mind is a maze
Yours is amazing; interest you raise
Such qualities are not found in clouds
I settle for smiles when nature allows
