A tiny drop of water is not just a drop, but holds a potential sea in itself...
...Not Just A Drop!
A drop is a whole Ocean in itself,What is an ocean, but a multitude of drops...
A drop is rain,
A drop is hail,
A drop is tumult,
A drop is a storm!
A drop is not just a drop:
A dewdrop on a rose petal,
on a pleasant morn.
Hoarfrost on a tender leaf,
on a chilly dawn.
A snowflake on your tender lips,
melting in your warmth.
A helpless tear
on a child's cheek,
on a hungry, sleepless night.
A gleam of joy
In a widow's eyes,
Watching her son grow with pride.
A pearl in an oyster shell
joyful of its destiny,
In that glorious moment of time.
Delicate ripple on a sunset beach,
kissing the shore
bathing the soul in its calm.
A frolicking froth
in a mountain stream,
skirting around the rocks.
A shower of rain
on a hot summer day,
cooling your brow.
A river
Flowing through the desert,
Giving the essential water of life.
A tornado, a hurricane,
A Tsunami, a giant wave,
Destroying things in potent rage.
A drop,
A tiny drop of water,
Is not just a drop!
It's
An expression of sorrow
A suggestion of joy,
Source of potent rage,
The mother of pearl,
The father of sea,
The giver of life...
A drop is not just a drop,
It's
the essence of our being on Earth!
