The Awaited Cloud

The moisture rose over the ocean
Millions of droplets merge in unison

 
They formed a cloud quite vast
Joining with the air they jazzed

 
Moving toward the land, curious
To see all the colors there, delirious

 
But when they arrived upon its plains
They heard the grass cry out in prayer

 
When the cloud hung right above
The cries changed to songs of love

 
You are the answer to our prayer, their song
We have longed for your waters for so long.

The nature vibe in the piece is very touching. Nature pieces are a dime a dozen, but the perspective on these lines help it stand out strong. Wonderfully done, Caroline! :)
