The Life of a Lonely Drop
Somewhere up high, beyond the clouds, thrones of vapor convene:
I, a mere drop, am but a wildcard in the game of the skies.
Who would think the winds care about my descent,
weaving spirals and gales, as if to impress a single droplet?
Oh, the audacity of these winds!
Spiraling with such velocity, yet so predictable,
a veritable carousel of zephyr ambitions.
Yet here I am, caught in this metaphysical cyclone,
contemplating my impact on the parched earth below.
Did the sun mock me, dropping down from its fiery throne,
only to rise again as I settle into the soil?
Perhaps there’s a lesson in this spiraling farce -
a cycle as old as time, though I’d rather be a snowflake.
Although, at least snowflakes have style.
Let’s be honest, is there really depth to this aerial ballet, or is it just nature's comedy?
To witness my liquid form merge with the ground, only to evaporate and repeat,
is like watching a sequel of a film that never needed a prequel.
Yet, here I spiral, entwined with the winds, a soft monologue in a cosmic opera.
