the clod and the cloud


by rhoda penmarq





a little clod of dirt sat in the sunshine.

a cloud came along

and hit the clod of dirt

with a raindrop

turning it into a flower

thank you

said the flower

i like being a flower now

i will return

said the cloud

with another raindrop to keep you a flower

the flower waited

and waited

and waited

but the cloud never returned

and the flower died

and the sky looked down at the dirt
