Gleeson and Ciaràn Kirwan both scored a brace of goals as Tony Shelly's charges romped home by 4-22 to 2-12.
Darragh Buckley (who ended the game with 1-4) and Ryan Gray raised green flags for the Bridesiders in the opening half who despite playing with wind advantage, trailed by 6 points at the break (3-10 to 2-7).
A determined Clonea never looked back when Kirwan fired to the net two minutes after the restart as Billy Power ended the hour with 7 points, and substitute Kieran Power hit three points upon his introduction.
