Poetry is Power: Drop of joy

 

Like little crystals,

Falling from the sky,

The raindrops sparkle,

In the glittering light,

Sinking into the ground,

Absorbing into the earth,

Flowing over the roots of trees,

Dripping down leaves,

Into the earth,

Where it started,

Making the earth happy,

Letting the planet live,

Sharing its kindness,

And it’s happiness,

With all of nature,

And with all life,

Raindrops are,

A drop of joy.
