I Was a Cloud

I was a cloud

I was a clud looking down;

Your frantic waving did not provoke feeling.

But this little one

Steady your wings, now, sparrow

I remembered him

Steady your wings, now, sparrow

And in the dark,

From the sea marbled and moon-blue

Into the burning eye of the sun

Without feeling

My end was imminent

Steady your course now, sparrow

But I remembered him

Fear for your home life, sparrow

Fear for your home life.
