"A tiny drop of water, like a tear, fell from the cloud and landed on Nina's cheek. Then another. The little cloud was starting to cry. "Oh, what's wrong, little cloud?" Nina whispered up to the sky."

"The little cloud peeked down and saw the sleepy flowers for the first time. It had been so worried about its sadness, it hadn't noticed who might need its tears. "They are?" the cloud asked, its voice a little stronger."

""It's okay to be sad sometimes," Nina said in her kindest voice. "And it's okay to cry. Your tears can do something amazing. Go on, the flowers are waiting.""

"The cloud took a little breath and let its tears fall in a soft, gentle shower. Pitter-patter, pitter-patter. The raindrops landed gently on the thirsty leaves and petals below."

"It was like magic! As the rain showered them, the flowers began to stretch and wake up. The sunflowers lifted their heavy heads, and the tulips stood up tall. The whole garden seemed to sigh with happiness."

"When the shower stopped, the sun peeked out, and its light shone through the cloud's last teardrops, painting a beautiful rainbow across the sky. The little cloud wasn't sad anymore. It felt happy and proud, knowing its tears had helped something beautiful grow."
