"A Fairies Illustration of A Single Drop of Water"
A single drop of water.
I saw one on canvas.
I have always admired the art
of painting drops of water.
I suppose I could study it.
Look inside its world.
A single drop of water
I saw one on a leaf.
It glistened in the sun
caught a rainbows colors.
I did not touch it
I merely loved its presence.
By noon it will be gone.
A single drop of water
I held one in my hand.
I dipped my finger
into a glass
let wetness touch my skin
then dropped its tiny bead
into my palm.
Twas there it rested
until I wiped it off.
A single drop of water
touched a zillion times ten.
I filled my tub
to drench my body in.
I slipped into the envelope
of closely connected drops
closed my eyes
and felt comfort.
A single drop of water
joined with all its friends.
I stood beside a waterfall.
It spoke of storms past.
My heart accepted its remarks
speaking loudly.
It sees new days
continuing
until the last.
A single drop of water
I am mesmerized.
I am a single human figure
on a planet
here and now
I am not that far away
from the dew on baby roses.
I expect the same miracles.
A single drop of water
our most precious gift.
I am a fierce admirer
and will defend it till the end.
I stand before the ocean
realize its vastness.
I feel so tiny
strain my eyes
as I try so hard
to see it all.
It is a fairies illustration
I suppose
of a single drop of water.
I stand in awe.
