Ode for a Rain Drop
Oh to be a rain drop
full of cohesive tension
holding it all together
to soar through the air
float in the clouds
fall into a puddle
to make a never-ending
concentric conversation
a simple rain drop
in bound-communion
one with another
and another
join in a swift storm
in streams rushing
pausing within lakes
widening the rivers
into the never-ending
oscillating ocean
