Afar....near

I was walking on a cloud
When it started to rain

Watching the scene from above
Was a definitive gain

The world looks beautiful with the shower of water
The trees and plant dance with joy to gather

The little creatures run for cover
Grabbing at a leaf for shelter

Not wanting to be left behind in the fun
I dive into the rain and that was my blunder

I find myself stranded in knee deep water
Puzzled with the scene, I ponder

Only when you peek inside
The flowery image subsides

Making you realise
That joy can simply be, even by looking from the outside
