In the high sky, there is a large cloud. It is like a cotton - candy castle, and many little raindrops live in it. These little raindrops are very tiny. They huddle closely together and play in the cloud every day. This cloud is their home and also the starting point of their journey.
One day, the cloud became heavy. The little raindrops knew that it was time for them to start their journey. They jumped out of the cloud excitedly and fell towards the ground like little paratroopers. During the fall, they felt the blowing of the wind. Some little raindrops were blown aslant and drew beautiful slanting lines in the air.
The little raindrops landed on the earth one after another. One of the little raindrops landed on a green leaf. The leaf was like a small green umbrella and caught the little raindrop. The little raindrop rolled around on the leaf. It looked at everything around curiously and found that there were many tiny veins on the leaf, like little paths. It also saw a little caterpillar crawling slowly beside it, as if greeting it.
After a while, the little raindrop slipped from the leaf and flowed down the trunk to the ground. There were many thin streams of water on the ground, and they finally converged into a brook. The little raindrop flowed into the brook and felt very novel. The water in the brook was crystal - clear, and there were many small fish swimming around in it. The little raindrop flowed merrily with the brook water. Sometimes it would bump into a small stone and splash up a little spray.
The brook kept flowing and finally joined with other brooks and became a wide river. The little raindrop also came here with the water flow. The water in the river rushed ceaselessly and made a very loud sound. The little raindrop felt more powerful in the river. It rolled and jumped together with other little raindrops in the river water and rushed forward with the waves of the river.
As time passed, the weather became hot. The sun was hanging high in the sky, giving out strong rays. The water in the river was warmed by the sun, and the little raindrop also felt a heat. Slowly, the little raindrop became lighter and lighter. Its body began to turn into water vapor and floated towards the sky. The little raindrop was very surprised, but it also knew that this was part of its journey.
The little raindrop floated higher and higher with the water vapor and finally returned to that large cloud. It saw many friends who had played together before. The little raindrop was extremely happy. It knew that its journey was over, but it was also looking forward to the next journey, because every journey would bring different surprises and discoveries.
