Back to clouds

Back to clouds then. Clouds like tornadoes get their fair amount
of adulation and an obscure --to me-- horde of loyal watchers.
This poem of mine is dedicated to a cloud chaser. 

A cloud chaser
His eyes pinned
On the celestial sphere
Pursuing ever elusive
Fugitives

Be it lucid or be it leaden
They never tire
They stow away
Behind peaks
They leap onto
The glistening lakes

A hostage to their erratic ways
In bondage to a trivial pursuit
His days aimlessly flutter by
His path fusing with their flight
