How many lives does a drop of water have?
Multiple different forms, travel so far only to come back home
Droplets of water on lotus leaf
Quickly saying “Bye” as the sun rises, they evaporate
Leaning on the breeze to go up high
High, high and higher till blue sky is nearer
They now join the clouds, floating carelessly
Toward the sea, toward the lake, the mountain, the cities...
Joyful clouds, light white clouds gather up as they float some more
Getting heavy and grey and slowly they pour
Rain on the rice fields, rain on the sand
Washing away the heat, bringing freshness in the air
Water on the trees, the street, the cars
Flowing tirelessly down the river, the falls
Nurturing more trees, plants and all lives
Or just freely stand on a lotus leaf
Whispering "Hi, it's me. We’ve met again"
I have traveled far, I have seen much,
I have heard children laugh,
I have seen love and care,
I have come back to tell you all...
The colorful life through the water droplet's "eyes"
Another tiny droplet got carried away
Far and further away
Till all around is covered in white
A blanket of snow on mountain's top
Welcoming little water drop to join
A solid family of flakes
Falling tenderly and coldly
Layers of snow tonight
May I call this a river of snow,
Since all water gathers here as well?
Name doesn't matter now
As we see all shapes and all forms
Coming from little tiny water drop
Travel so far and hasn't come back home
An adventurous soul!
Waterdrop doesn’t vanish,
Just changes, floats or flows
The joyful continuation of life
Lovely, pure and calm.
I see you in the clouds,
In these foggy nights,
Through the cold winter days
And as ocean waves, as river flows
How magnificent you are!
A little part of life, as we all are!
Grapefruit flowers, after the rain
More pouring rain
Jackfruit tree after the rain
Rainbow, mist and of course waterfalls
Clouds!
And me in the clouds, they were cool, soft and quick to float away
