Cloud No Bigger than a Man's Hand
Dick Allen
 
 
It approaches from the sea, too small 
 for thunder and lightning 
 but ominous1 as a closed fist 
 and what it will bring 
 
nearing us, growing larger, 
 is completely unknown. 
 Beware the leaves blowing, beware 
 the spot on the sun. 
 
All is turned toward it. It rides 
 the brow of the mind. 
 Soon, it will shadow one cliff 
 and a small lifeguard stand. 
 
Beware the leaves blowing, beware 
 the spot on the sun. 
 Do your work well. Behold 
 the work yet to be done.
