Storm Cloud

Storm clouds

hang over my head

dark and grey

they wait to rain on me

different shades of gray, white, and blue

soon they'll cry their tears

down, down, the rain shall fall

covering the ground in small, sweet droplets.

then the sun will light his way through

drying away the cloud's tears

he again makes her happy

keeping away the tears that plague her so

when her tears are gone

she leaves

only to return later with more sorrow

but the sun always shines through to dry the tears.

that's why he hides in the rain

he, too, is sad to see the cloud's tears

he wants all to be happy

especially his friends, the clouds, the sky, and the Earth
