As I watch
The cattails blowing
in the wind
It begins to rain
Perfect drops
Falling from the sky
Each one
As luminous as a pearl
Falling
on the leaves
the water
the grass
Each drop
Glides
Down each leaf
Akin to a glass bead
And as I watch
Wanting
to see more
Yearning
For the cold
Slippery
Feel
On my skin.
Perfect.
I want so
So
So
Much more.
But now
It’s gone.
