Raindrops
Condensed out of the breath of God
We are thrown down in surrender
Drawn by the pull of the world
Succumbing to The Fall
From the Eden of innocence
A fall ending only in the death of self
Annihilated in the striking
Yet united in the flow
Coalescing with those gone before
Shaping the world for those to come
The channel that shapes the flow
The flow that shapes the channel
Yielding, at last, in evanescent flight
In the final return to our source
