Three drops
If through a glance
I could but slow
the shuddering speed
of time — across
the distances cold
'tween budding drops:
reflectors of lives
that never lost
their luminous sheaths,
—impatterned wisps—
but pass them along
with silent lips
in light-strewn symphonies.

is resurrected —
by arc of star, yet how
can contemplated be —
the shapes, the billion manners
of their bent convexities —
splashed across the windowpane
of all the endless galaxies?
III.
All the heart of life is in a drop —a molten drop, a blinding sphere sublime
that replicates its beauty with a word —
immortal word, that set in motion time.

I consider each of us as only a drop.
Here to shine for a time and then …….
3 "molten" drops in a bucket the "immortatal word set in motion time" and sets these three drops in motion.
It takes an open mind to learn from a drop of water but there is no substance like this on earth. The charcteristics of water are never ending, covalent and non covalent bonding, polarity, reflective and refractive qualities. Simply put, beautiful!
I cannot see the cosmos just making water on earth by accident. I see the eternal word in motion foretelling the rain today and these three drops in a bucket as fateless as they seem are given meaning and glory to our existence today.
The light radiates through the droplet and is recorded in pixels displayed here caught with your eye and now mine. I'm glad people can recognize beauty in your art and relate.
Everything about this post is gorgeous. Wondrous water, holds all, a blinding sphere sublime.
Man I have been enjoying these for years now I realized.
Makes me think of pausing and living in the moment more.
