Drip, drip, drip...

(With thanks to Shawn Reeves for the inspiration)



One drop, a single tear; each molecule becomes a deluge when joined with others.
Floods, waterfalls, rivers sculpt their own courses; pushing their own agendas.

Swim together, sink separately; floating along as a separate microcosm might make a lovely bubble but we need ripples, we need torrents, and we need high tides.

Remember the glorious rainbows
that form from the gossamer foam atomised over booming waterfalls;
cataracts formed of droplets... or the billows of cloud-forming steam from rain on hot rooftops.

Singly, the droplets are lovely to see when lit by a sunbeam but together they are glorious.
Be the patient drip, drip that builds a strong, but delicate, seeming stalactite…
or become part of the waterfall that carves its inimitable path
while showering the sky with rainbows.
