Poem: “CLOUDS”

(Image by and property of FBC, Omnia Caelum Studios València. All Rights Reserved)

The world we love will always be our refuge.

The lessons that I’ve learned I will transmit.

I’ve been sending my messages in verses,

I’d like to one day think that I’ll succeed.

I came from one lone star above the waters,

I turned into a drop of raging sea.

Upon the beach a grain of sand resembled

the very thing that life has given me.

I am a face that mixes, blends and merges,

into the multitudes that walk and hope and dreams.

I’ve learned from every soul that smiled and welcomed,

that welcomed my beliefs and what I’ve been.

I’ve been a cloud that loves the blueness of the sky,

the brilliance of the sun,

the power of the breeze.

    This is really a testimony to being a loving, caring individual who has a great big talented heart that takes all the love he has embraced and gives it right back as does your precious family. Mixing with nature along with your faith and sharing a feeling of peace. Beautiful! Love to you both ❤️

    Beautiful poem, Francis. I like how you’re able to put your readers inside an object like a cloud so we can experience what it must be like to be a cloud or a drop of rain. Amazing writing!
