0004 – Nimbus Clouds Today

Rain rain go away... It’s been raining for days. The gloomy weather really clouds my good mood too. Though I like clouds, rain clouds are the least of my favorite. Rain clouds are called nimbus clouds, and wiki says that they are clouds that produce precipitation in the form of rain, hail or snow. It’s supposed to take different forms, depending on which level the cloud is at. I looked outside the window, I don’t see how the clouds look like.  They hide themselves in the grey skies and rain.

A nimbus cloud wasn’t always gloomy. It was once a happy cloud. Maybe it was a cumulus cloud, fluffy and grand and showed itself on the brightest days. Or it could have been a cirrus cloud, floating freely up in the sky, moving in whatever direction it likes. Or maybe it was a stratus cloud, silently looking over the grounds, just keeping itself close. But day after day, that cloud absorbs the world’s water. It takes in droplets from everywhere – rivers, seas, sidewalks. It doesn’t really care what it takes and where. But that cloud can only take so much, soon it would have to release all that it took. It had to be a nimbus, it had to shower rain, so it can feel light again. So it could float up high again. So it can be a happy cloud once more.

This is a cycle that this cloud must go through. We can’t expect it to be a cumulus cloud forever, because sooner or later it will get tired of absorbing the world, and it just had to let the rain flow, just like today.
