I asked the grass
“how do you grow?”
the grass replied
“with the help of snow”

I sought to find
a patch of snow
to ask it how
it helped grass grow

I climbed the highest mountain top
in order to converse with snow
the snow remarked, “I melt away
and end up in the lakes and rain”

I looked up to the great blue sky
“please tell me clouds, I have to know
why do you cry?”

the clouds replied
“in order to bring forth new life”
