The clouds of childhood are puffy white;
they are pillows to climb.
The ever-morphing wonders float an endless flight;
These white beings live a life in world of the sublime.
A child can witness the personality of each cloud formation;
some are rowdy; some are shy.
Clouds contain creatures of creativity and elation;
They are more than white decorations in the sky.
A child casts eyes on a cloud creature up above;
the image is a dragon breathing fire.
The dragon disappears into a realm where its beauty is loved;
the child blinks and spots an evolved creature even higher.
It is a cyclops gazing with one eye at the world below;
the eye stares down casting a spell on the child.
As the cyclops fades into a portal of cloudy snow,
the cloud creatures have transformed into something mild.
The spell on the child is death of imagination;
The cloud creatures of creativity can no longer be seen.
An adult cannot see these beings of inspiration.
Now the clouds in the sky coast calmly and serene.

Very well done. I love the creativity in this poem as you develop the different things a child sees in the clouds. It is almost as if you are disproving your own idea of adults lacking imagination. It flowed very nicely for me.
