Clouds

These black tinged
Grey puffy
Billowing fluffy clouds
Seem intent
On smothering us
In our sleep
Stifling our lungs
With their closeness
Like crowding bullies

They threaten
To drown us
With their drip dropping
Chinese water torture
Raindrops
Hovering with a weight
Of airy mountains
Ready to spill
Their baggage
Like overweight travellers

And as they brood
Like sultry teenagers
Or squabbling lovers
Their brows
Could darken further
Into a furrowed storm
Or their cares
Could disperse
With the breeze
Into a sun-tinged
Blue skied smile
