Clouds

Scott Whitby, 2020


What is past that cloud?

Is there blue on the other side?

Are there birds

Or is that too high?


This cloud is white

But the other was gray

Why isn't it blue?

Same as the other day


What are clouds?

There must be a why

They must be more

Can't be just a foggy sky


Can't be so simple

That they just make rain

Might they be there

To hide God's pain?


Are they there for us?

Must be more than our view

He's on the other side

Thinking what He should do


Did He make the clouds

So that we can't see?

Or are they there

To hide us from Thee?


Maybe from Heaven

Those clouds in place

So He doesn't have to see

He doesn't have to face


God made those clouds

They are more than play

He knew He'd need them

He knew we'd stray


He knew we'd disappoint

We could never measure

What little He asked

All we worship is pleasure


God knew He'd need

Something to block His eye

He made the clouds

So He can't see us not try
