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
