She moved up over sea and danced,
She thought desert was well chanced.
Advanced in time cloud went up,
Then poured her tear drop by drop.
Cup of water finding desert land,
Did weak up and shacked her hand.
Cloud cried by watching war from far,
She saw men fought for water calling star.
Then she wandered far across forest hill,
Everywhere pollution watched did a drill.
Cloud could not tolerate and danced soon,
To drop out tear to wash sin she gave boon.
Peacock watched and danced spreading feather,
Cloud aging and aging in agony cried further.
She loved and cried near village hill more,
She flew in river stream to reach sea shore.
What to do she did not know, prayed God,
By father’s grace grass grew in lap of clod.
