Catch the Clouds

Catch the Clouds
	As they drift by
The moist mist kissed
	In dream blue high
Catch the clouds in
	The sweet salt snare of
A woman’s womb
	A cozy room
Catch the clouds 
	If you care
Catch the moist seed
	Plant it deep
Bring the moist need
	From its 
		Dreamy sleep

Another winner of a poem. I especially like the repetition of the word 'moist.' Powerful. A wonderful, thoughtful verse. Regards. Brian
