In the Shadow of a Cloud

 

A lone Dove flew in failing sun

In skies of day, tear-shroud

Spiralling through birds last light shone shafts

In the wakening of a cloud

 

A Whale school swam in waters cold

In waters stained, blood-shroud

Floating through fish's aquatic mould

In the beckoning of a cloud

 

A Lion pack prowled through wilting grass

On planes scorched, burnt, heat-shroud

Dying amongst the falling ash

In the threatening of a cloud

 

God cried his last in chaos midst

This Earth, this world, death-shroud

Church bells echoed through Devil’s mist

In the presence of a cloud

 

And with the dawn of endless dusk

Humanity is shroud

One by one we fall to dust

In the veiling of a cloud

 

  Death strolled along with open arms

On land that he had shroud

Death blew his blow, sounded Hell's alarm

In the shadow of a cloud

I like the theme and the way you chose to describe each cloud with each new stanza. The ending stanza capped it all off nicely. Good job.
