Sunset Clouds

Clouds, do you know your purpose?
Clouds, to what place you fly?
Clouds, do you feel the force of
Love in the autumn sky?

Cclouds, can you feel the distance
Resonating through Space?
Man, can you feel Existence
Touching you on the face?

Sun beams between them, screaming,
Cinging us - and the chill
Beckons the heart that's dreaming
And through it forges Will.

Pelican cloud is flying
With long distended beak,
Look at it as it's dying
And turns into a streak -

Dragonfly, wings extended,
Amid white tulip blooms,
Beaches made of white sand and
On their side, hotel rooms,

Columns of wind and vapor:
Fetus amid them sits
On luscious breast - the shaper
Vanishes in their mist!

Wool of a lamb uplifted
Over the sky it laves
Sands of sahara shifting
Amid the ocean waves -

Feathery line of funnels -
Geisers that through them burst -
Streams through the sky make tunnels
And slake the heaven's thirst:

Soft cherry blossoms paling
And making pillows white,
Yacht on an ocean sailing
And vanishing from sight,

Soft feather-bedded pillows
Light like the milky way
White foam of ocean billows
And many shades of gray

Sail in the ocean sunset!
Airplane over the seas!
Mingling of fire and dust and
Wisps of the ocean breeze!

Light of eternal morning!
Back of beluga whale!
White walls of kremlin soaring!
Dome of the Taj Mahal!

Pyre of Sardonapaulos!
Spanish baptysmal font!
Luminous orchid blossoms!
Whites of blue eyes, that haunt!

Fractal designs combining
Imaginal and real!
Mind and the heart refining
All things to think and feel!

Merger of mind and soul -
Reason and sensuousness!
Universe in its whole
With its sublime caress!

Soft incandescent foam!
Fruit of the wind and sun!
There they begin, there roam,
And with next look, they're gone!

Sun goes down on the west side -
Moon rises in the east -
Full and complete, and rested
Over this artist's feast:

Clouds are between them floating
Life's paints all merged in one
And earth upon them doting
As it lets go of Sun -

Look at them as they travel
Over the sky of blue
Lift your heart to their level
And by them be made True.

Ilya Shambat.
