…………..Life
A drip of water from a tap
…Is born, begins its drop
And leaves behind its mother’s lap
…Until the sea, then – stop.
Its life is short, a moment’s fall,
…A barely whispered, “Wheeee!”
And then a splash to end it all
…Into eternity.

Terrific: Light and lilting on the surface, but underneath is a sermon as powerful as one of a thousand words.
Thanks. I think it is the “wheee” that especially makes it light and lilting. 🙂
