Poems About Clouds Seeking Honest Critique

Hankering
I had a dream when I was younger that I was swinging in between two rockets in our hayfield. I was attached to both, one rope on one rocket, the other rope on the second, and I in between swinging on a child's swing. I still don't understand that dream. Lol

Thoughts of Tranquility
Let fields and rivers bring me gentle peace,
In quiet valleys where their waters flow.
I seek no fame, no glory’s proud increase,
Just trees and streams in nature’s softest glow.
I cherish rivers, winding slow and free,
Their gentle murmur a balm to the soul,
And forests deep, where silence lets me be,
Away from crowds and life’s demanding toll.
O the tranquility in quiet thoughts carried on the breeze, In effortless beauty, unassuming yet so pure. Bending apple boughs laden, the wild blossom and the deep rooted trees, this is all I need,...

Autumn Fog and October Mist
And When the sun shines
The morning dew glitters
While the fog is thick
The waking bird twitters
When the dawn awakes
And the light scatters
On every inch of earth
The drizzling dew spatters
Then, rise from every spot
The earthly living rumors
Sounds of every pitch
Scents of morning flowers
And the floating perfumes
Waltz high in the firmament
And the bees in honey quest
A faith, heavenly permanent
...

sea that sleeps in the blue
the sea takes and the sea brings
the sea is a castle that crumbles into sand
the sea keeps every fleeting moment
and gives belly to the sailor who lies
the sea is never wrong
the sea never has plans anyway
the sea covers and disappears at the pier
the sea breaking on the beach comes in peace
sounds its deep waves like jazz
the sea is serene and knows the good it does for us

Hallowed Firmament
When I describe in glowing terms
September skies that I've adored,
I thought them heavens, best explored,
with what an aspiration affirms...
betokened so by cirrus white,
so thin adrift among the blue,
mingling with the contrail spew
long after jets are out of sight.
These things define that vast expanse
over a leafy sunset gold
to contrast with autumnal cold...
enough to switch from shorts to pants.
Then watch the hummingbirds alight,
just for a moment, on a twig;
thin adrift in a sky so...

The Happiness of clouds
displacing feelings altering themselves according to mood
happiness despite every dark factor
loving hope, talking to joy
meditate on blue the clouds scatter
then assemble according to our thoughts
with childlike faith and in wonderment
dreams are on my mind
reading I am transported there
wondering where it all began
being fair is subjective
there are gray areas
we can only decide according to what we've seen
and have experienced
and that is a different vision for all of us
serious on my observations
and...

when it rains
mixed feelings
“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass…It’s about learning
to dance in the rain.”—Vivian Greene
when it rains, i have mixed feelings
of the deluge i must face,
for some showers leave me reeling,
and some raindrops ruin my base.
when it rains a rainbow harvest,
all my life soars on a cloud;
but the rains that hit me hardest
are the ones that hope enshroud.
when it rains harsh disillusion,
stirring dregs long put to sleep,
earth and heav’n weigh my confusion ...

In the vast expanse of the garden
Such a grand kingdom.
The petals flutter like candles
in the breeze they spin.
Let secrets whisper
tales from distant lands.
In this verdant haven
where time passes
through our hands.
Flowers bloom like coral,
vibrant and bright,
in the warm embrace of the sun.
They bask in the violet light.
Paths wind like chains,
winding and free,
through this lush sanctuary
where dreams come to be.
Dance of the butterflies
like creatures from the deep.
In this green expanse
where the memories we keep....

Elysian Afternoons
It seemed like Olympus in a cloud form
busting up in the sunset silver west
after a couple days of mild storm
which gardeners and gardens know is best
for a late July renaissance of blooms;
a last minute resurrection of hope
for desiccating yard biota dooms
in drouthy dog day pollinator scope
under a sky regatta of Zephyrs
slowly prying apart the marbled puffs
drifting above the dairyland heifers
and putting greens amid the fairway ruffs,
steeped now, in Arcadian breezes blown,
as heavenly as starlet...

AS FAR AS YOUR EYES CAN SEE
It's me again the story teller of words ✍️ FOR I would like to take a break from all the negativity and drama and the chaos, 😔 That flows through the deepest thoughts of our mind, 🤫 as if you can picture thyself somewhere else, in another space and time ⌚ besides living between the here and now 😞 YET it is necessary as it is possible to just close off your mind, and picture thyself upon the 🏖️ beach with it's crystal sands beneath your feet and the morning sun coming over the horizon as you take a slow walk 🌄 leaving behind...

The Midnight Pacific
I dreamt of going to the beach
but the beach came to me
with all the colors to beseech
a midnight mind at sea.
And all washing in on a breeze
of sweet pacific air
and sweeter still through all the trees
of forests everywhere!
Then to an ocean sky I woke
of multi-layered gray,
wherefrom Poseidon gently spoke
his hydrologic say...
"Oh, when you finally get some sleep
when you were overdue
my spirits over land will creep...
and bring the sea to you"

Bleeding
In the moon’s tender glow hearts ache
and weep for love unrequited,
secrets buried deep.
They bleed for stolen kisses,
promises untold.
In the quiet of night,
where passion takes hold.
Raindrops fall like tears tracing
sorrow’s path, for friendships shattered
dreams that couldn’t last.
They bleed for memories etched
in fading ink and the ache of absence
when loved ones sink.
Against taunting tornadoes they stand
their ground, bleeding resilience,
courage profound.
