                                                                    Down I look
                                                                    Dark I see
                                                                    dotted with light

                                                                    Dark Blue like the sky
                                                                    Clear like the rain
                                                                    Gray like my thoughts
                                                                    Brown like soil
                                                                    Orange like the sun from here

                                                                    Sun shining
                                                                    Orange
                                                                    Pink like roses
                                                                    Red like peonies
                                                                    Fast the sunrise goes
                                                                    Sky Blue like bluestars

                                                                    Cutting down trees I see
                                                                    Oh!
                                                                    The rainforests
                                                                    Why?
                                                                    Give me an answer!
                                                                    Let it go you may tell me!
                                                                    Go away while I flee
                                                                    Not happy.

                                                                    I am a cloud making rain
                                                                    White and fluffy, gray and stormy
                                                                    Whatever you call me
                                                                    I give you life, you ignorant people!

I love how you compare your thoughts to gray thoughts, but that seems a little sad to have gray thoughts

Thank you!!! + tressa that means my thoughts are sad and lonely. You know how people think grey is a sad color? Oh ya! Thanks anyway

You're welcome. Ok, that's what I thought, but thanks for telling me anyways. I feel the same way a lot of times, with grey thoughts. But I want to find a way to make them yellow and happy again!

Great poem! I love the way you described the scenes- 'Dotted with light, clear like the rain', etc. Continue writing, you're great!

Haha, "you ignorant people!" I like it. :P And theres one part I was wondering about, "Gray like my thoughts." not to be nosy or anything, I was just wondering why your thoughts might be gray. :| I love clouds, (well, not necessarily huge tornado-making clouds) and I have a few different names memorized of them. ;{o
