Cloud Maker Artists

Cloud Maker Artists

Tween lives...that's where cloud-makers dwell
plying their wind-borne trade.
Their companions...shadow-makers' busy 
assigning shadows to escort storm clouds.
The pair, playing swift with natures strength,
they tumble and smooze 
off craggy cliffs, ready to explore.

Sunlight pierces and shows the way 
in glittering sunlit paths galore.
Shadows run rampant over the valley
blending and parting, as do we!
Windspeed propelled, they dance to 
an ancient melody, folding and molding
till the storm is spent
And sun...melts the clouds away.

They then repent and behave again 
and shadow with the time of day.
