Grey Cloud

 

 

There once was a grey cloud
who filled the sky.
Thirsty plants called to her
bounty on high.

She gave and she gave
in response to their call
Trees in her rains of great grace
grew quite tall

 

So much she did give
she became faintly traced
So slight now her cloud
angel wings tiny laced

but a raintree for his
dried grasses cried
She gave of her last and
became nothing at all

God send rain in the perfect amount

everywhere needed ad always
