A Drop of Rain
Splash it does
On the window
As you stare
Frozen and blank
It slides, fleets
And dissolves
As time and life
Fritter away
Splash it does
On the window
As you stare
And blink not
At times gentle
Balmy and candid
As the smile
Of a baby
At times violent
Devoid of mercy
As the fire
Of wrath
At times quiet
Stealthy as whisper
Armed with calm
Of the woods
At times dreary
Cold as death
And dark as
Depth of gloom
Falling from heavens
Where your dreams fly
On to this Earth
Where you belong
Splash it does
On sand and rocks
On flowers and grass
On glass and faces
Splash it does
On the window
As you stare
Frozen and blank
With dabs tender
Reveries it stirs
It spares the glass
But breaks your heart
And it slides, fleets
And dissolves
As time and life
Fritter away
