There is a sense of profound grief and joy

blended in the much awaited rain drops,

the moment they escape from the cloud-hills.

As if they have waited for years of freedom

and those years have been slow and fast,

eluding glory from the tiny soldiers marching

towards death in the pit of the thirsty hell.

In the kingdom of Cloud-hills they were gods

of divine evolution waiting for a supreme order,

to re-unite with the earth’s crust into matter-

tiny beads of light, happiness, love.

So they kiss the grass, fix the butterflies,

Wets the soil to become fertile like the mother’s womb-

And then die gradually for another birth.
