Such a moment as this

Such beauty in a raindrop

Such gentleness of sorrow

as each leaf gives up its last smile

Such a caress of her breath

as she kisses the skin of her creation

where within there is the elixir of life

waiting for such a moment as this

for what if life but a moment of joy

of possibilities, of growth

of love, of death

of beauty, of wonderment

of time

Such beauty in a raindrop

Such elegance of flight

as each feather, each wing rides the storm

Such a filigree of expression

as she creates her finest chaos

Such beauty, in moments like this …
