Thunderstorm


As the thunderstorm builds,
and each drop of rain is formed in the clouds,
High up in the cold atmosphere above,
Lightning heats a line of sky,
Thunder vibrates thru the core of everything

A drop of rain falls from the cloud where it was born
and drops upon the ocean,
from which it came

One drop of rain
a million drops of rain
infinite drops of rain
all part of the ocean, the ocean itself

None separate from the other,
they never were

Why would time matter to a raindrop,
in it's ever continuous cycle of sea, to sky, to cloud
to sea?

Sometimes a raindrop, sometimes an ocean, sometimes moist hot air

always the same,
always one
