Mountains Shrink From Clouds

Mountains Shrink From Clouds

Mountains shrink from clouds,

To form the house of man,

To invade the sky,

Forming goals more grand.

 

Beyond the stars asunder,

Lies something.

We try to wonder,

But don’t dare form.

 

The brains of man are strong,

Hearts of man, stronger,

But the strongest,

Gluttony.

 

Man thinks unnatural,

Impetuous when fluid,

Selfish when ambitious,

Cold when sympathetic.

 

The mountain of man shall rise,

But when it reaches the stars,

It will shrink from clouds,

To form a house no more.

Poem: Another Rainy Day

The menacing rain

Sung a song with the dim clouds

About its dark woes

_

Yet dancing children

In the summer’s worst torrent

Sent cheers to the sky

_

The heavy rain’s drops,

Hugged the bare arms of the kids,

As they grew goose-bumps.

_

The rough, robust winds,

Attacked the youths with their whips,

And sharpened daggers.

_

The kids retreated.

When the winds teased and snickered,

The youths brought armor.

_

The winds surrendered,

After seeing their soft shells,

And the kids had won.

I hope you enjoyed the poem. I would like to also include a fresh, new song after each post. So here is Thirsty Man by Blitzen Trapper :  http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWbKrhqufU8
