Excellence Award in the 'Horizon of Dreams 2018' competition
On a cloud sprinkled with grey,
I sit there drifting away,
With tears sparkling blue,
Dripping down just like dew,
I've entered a pitch black cave,
I can't feel the urge to be brave,
It's the feeling of ultimate gloom,
Like all you've ever faced is doom,
It's the feeling of sadness,
Possibly teary madness,
I can feel the icy blizzard,
Creeping round like a lizard,
The chill is more than I can bear,
I've had a frightening scare,
Cause' I'm on a cloud sprinkled with grey,
And the wind's swept me away.
