My first Pantoum

This attempt was actually assembled from a scrap heap of images I recorded at the beach last week. Send me an email and let me know if u think it works:

The Clouds Build Mountains

The clouds build mountains
Over the sea
Ominous purples and billowing grays.
When will it rain?

Over the sea
A lobster boat struggles.
When will it rain?
I am responsible.

A lobster boat struggles
Through the swells.
I am responsible.
I have seen her crying.

Through the swells
I see her face.
I have seen her crying
Reading my words.

She feels
Ominous purples and billowing grays
Rising inside her.
The clouds build mountains.
