A second visit of this marvellous poem makes me feel in addition to that I have already commented that off-season clouds though barren are capable of dropping down a bit of waster on its way.perhaps like a gift. The cloud can be a herald of the coming rainy season too

In the scarcity of water people as well as all creatures are in a hope to get rain drop from a floating cloud. This essence is so incisively delineated in this poem. I want to cite some lines here....One floating cloud / Showering blessings / From above / Oh I know, I know / I was waiting for it / All these years! ... Fabulous work. I knew later that this poem was selected as the member poem of the poem of the day. Now I congratulate you with many thanks.

A lovely poem indeed and truly deserves to be the Poem of the Day. But the accolade has not come like a floating cloud unexpectedly showering blessings, you well deserve it.

Blessings from above come unexpectedly, in God's own time. From time to time, we asks for it, yet it will all depend on God's own hands. Happy are those who are given the privilege of such blessings. A great and lovely metaphorical write imbued with a meaningful message. Simply put but with great impact. Congratulations for a truly deserved accolade.
