Sam Kauffman Poet Rhyme

Away In a Cloud Ship

Away on a Cloud Ship…

Away on a cloud ship 
 Not a care have I 
I play with the breezes
 Way up in the sky

I ride on the rainbows
 As cloudy storms cry
Then sail with the eagles
 And soar on their sighs.

The cool air floats past me 
 Like gossamer wings
I float on the air streams
 That rise like wellsprings

And join with the nimbus,
 As cloud songs we sing -
To somersault, hopscotch, 
 In airy handsprings.

I high five with thunder – 
 See glory ablaze –
Then gather up sunbeams 
 For dark rainy days

And make chains of moonbeams
 From soft, moonlit rays
To raise up to God’s ears
 A new psalm of praise.

Jan Allison July 31, 2023 at 8:39 AM A beautifully uplifting poem Sam, unfortunately i had to dock points as the syllable count was a little out and i wanted exact rhyme with cry and sing. Many congrats on your placement and thanks for taking time to enter the contest:-) hugs Jan xx
