the water turns into steam rising up and there the colder the steam that was not seen before turns into a cloud the wind carries the cloud away and there it falls as rain

Because the higher up from Earth the lower the air temperature. When the air temperature most times in the troposphere approaches 0 Celsius, the water vapor condenses on the grains of sand that make up the cumulus clouds!

The sun warms the water in the ocean, in the sea, in the river, in any puddle. Water evaporates, turns into a transparent vapor and rises to the top, where warm air currents take it with them. Because warm air is lighter than cold air, it always tends to rush upward. As it rises higher and higher, the light water vapor from the sun-heated land, climbs high, to where it is always, even on the hottest summer day, very cold, like in winter. The steam is warm, and when it touches the cold air, it turns into tiny water droplets. The droplets are as light as fluff, they stay perfectly in the air, floating and moving all the time because they are being pushed by more and more currents of warm air coming up from the ground. The warm air pushes the droplets even higher, the cold air drags them down. And so they fly, tiny travelers, up and down. They dance, merge together, get bigger. Very, very many of them, together they form a cloud. At the top of the cloud, the droplets freeze - it's very cold there. They turn into ice, grow bigger and heavier, and then they can't hold on to the cloud anymore and they fall down. And when they fall, they melt, because it's warmer below, they become water droplets again, merge together, and it rains on the ground.

By the ground
