Cloud Contry

The sky is like a big sheet of mud water spread...
A vast spread...
An unending stretch...
And i fly like a nomad bird,
steering long, tall cloud walls,
looking for my Angel, the Rain-Eyed!
I pass by cloud deities,
moving in a stately caravan,
mostly shaped in prehistoric creature form;
Here a languid brontosaurus i see,
there a camel wearing lofty arrangements overhead...
Moving very elegantly,
very slowly,
as if half swimming half floating,
in a surreal heavenly river!

Somewhere there is a landing,
a white stretch,
waiting for any heavenly chariot to descend any time,
and some where there is a mysterious field,
and far ahead beckoning the horizon is a single tree,
going through it's naming ceremony- 'Kalpabrikshya'!

Then the Fairy reads out the Cloud Tarrot Card!
But she smiles and did not disclose the interpretation!
Down below Brahmaputra sighs...
simmers...
Clinging to it's silvery sand bed!
