The Dancing Cloud

I was imagining what a dancing cloud would feel like if I were in its shoes.

The dancing cloud,
the way it carried on, must
have been proud. It created
the shade by the moves it
made. The next thing I knew,
the skies were blue. It was
clear, as I put on my gear, that
it's time to have fun in the sun.

The future looked bright, when
the cloud moved to the left, to
the center, and then to the right.
It swayed with the beat, as it
turned down the heat. This, I
thought, was pretty neat.

A humbling thought occured while
doing the twist. I couldn't resist, it
was so much fun. With a nice
young guy, I would give it a try.

It drifted off to another place, finding
that it could dance with grace; that's
the way it kept up the pace.

Romance trickled throughout
the town. You're the main physical
reactor, that's a fact. You are mine
forever.
