One Cloud

One cloud was all I asked for

one cloud and nothing more

I asked for it and it was there

quite white and a little fair

light but shapely and rare

And then as if it too

had its own wish

separated into two

clouds against the blue

it grew surrounded but see through

by butterflies of different hues

And then looking for so long

I noticed it was gone

My cloud my wish my view.
