Destiny Or Chance

The drop from heaven Made its way through trees Stopping for none Till it sought her, deep in sleep It fell on her brow Cascading down the bridge Catching its breath while It rested in the softness of her cleft. Her lips quivered As it slid across the fullness To the roundness of her chin Hanging precariously for destiny to lead The leaf too lived for the moment Knowing not when next a drop Would seek her out To awaken her from her sleep

Almost like a scene from "Sleeping Beauty." Nicely descriptive, with a touch of intrigue.
