Curly clouds of snowy white, <br />Fleecy islands in the light, <br />Prettier than cotton wool, <br />Come and be my bed tonight. <br /> <br />Even a king would not disdain <br />Golden cloud for counterpane, <br />White ones for the sheets so cool <br />Pillows like a silken skein! <br /> <br />Oh! To sleep and dream, and wake <br />With the cloud's first morning shake, <br />Hear the broad Earth stir below, <br />Watch the shinning daylight break! <br /> <br />Lying safe upon my cloud, <br />Feeling like a fairy proud, <br />Sailing softly I should go, <br />Singing like the larks aloud!<br /><br />Lawrence CH Hiun<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/clouds-109/
