A Wish !

• I want to be a piece of cloud,
  A vagabond by birth,
  Floating on my pace own,
  Far away from this earth !
  
  None to resist my reckless flight,
  None to call me home,
  Oh ! What a mirth it would be,
  Flying all alone !
  
  I could flirt with the wind strong,
  Gaze at that loving moon,
  Stars and sun would be close by,
  Yet, my freedom of being alone !
  
  Then I would get heavy one day,
  And would want to pour down,
  My joys would be droplets then,
  Dropping all alone !
  
  From brooks to rivers I would flow,
  And from rivers to that sea,
  Again in vapours I would rise,
  And again float in cloudy glee !
  
  If I do become a cloud someday,
  And get my lone flight,
  I would come to see you oneday,
  However you try and hide !
  
  I shall catch you unaware,
  As you gaze at me,
  Wondering, 'oh this cloud, I know,
  Does it not look like she' !
  
  I shall smile at your folly,
  You knew not, it was me,
  And the joy of seeing you...
  A cloud, someday, I must be !
