Shadow of Clouds

The cloud is torn
Does it matter?
The sky is spacious
I will build a nest in the lap of clouds
We will float. Hands on hands, feet on mica
Your soft hands strengthen my power
Floating and swimming 
No one knows where we are
We sprinkle love from the sky
Teach them how to kiss even in a storm
When we are tired of roaming around on the earth
We will rest in our nest
The grace of your face
Suave bed of clouds
And your slow, enduring smile
Enlighten my hearts
If you also have the courage to love me
One day I will go beyond the universe with your embrace.
