hugging a cloud

I saw you today...
I saw you today in the smile of a child... Pure, beautiful, innocent
I saw you today in the passing of a cloud... just for a bit but long enough for me to just think..
I saw you today and it was only in my mind, when I heard that song on the radio that will always make me think of you and though sometimes when I hear it, I change the station and pretend I didn't hear it, there are still those times I sing along to it and just think.

I heard your laughter the other day, when I heard a dirty joke about a blonde and all I could think of was "oh wow" but I realized it was just me laughing alone. I heard your "hey!" and turned back to nobody behind me and I didn't know whether to keep looking or keep walking as I knew no one was there. I still turn and look every time I make that drive, though I haven't made it in quite a while, every time I make it I still turn my  head. I'm not sure if I turn it in hopes to still see you or may be just your car. Neither are ever there, nor will be.

I thought of you and am still doing so, every time I see a cactus and think to myself "gawsh, no one would ever be dumb enough to hug one". I tihnk and laugh every time I think of hippie, tree hugger as we defined it in a different manner. But now, every time I see a cloud, I will always think "I hope ones being hugged for me" and know now theres a cloud hugger
