Peel like grammatical mistakes
A citrus smell bouquets outs
The toddler has big round pupils
Round, round, big, black
She sniffs and sneezes
Her mother chides her
Somewhere up above
A cloud sniffs too
A citrus droplet joins in
The parched land waits
For this cloud to sneeze
Who, then, shall be
The lucky recipient
Of a little orange-y rain?
