Clouds as light as wedding veils float by
Fitting decorations for the sky.
The sky so huge and beautiful is calm.
Absent thunder can this cause us harm?
The human world of houses shops and schools
All are shaped and ordered by known rules
And underneath the sky so calm and light
The earth can quake and shudder day or night
The human world is easy to destroy
Bombs or earthquakes do more than annoy
Our human mind has tempests of its own.
Suddenly the unknown swamps the known
What is the flood that heals, the flood that drown?
Display the Catherine wheels, bring on the clowns
