Droplets

Raindrops fall in the lake a ring of embraces Soft and shy as a maiden’s kiss, Welcome back my lovelies you have been away too long. On big leaved plants on the lake’s banks, pearls Large and small glitter in the evening light for now They too will fall roll into the lake, which will be whole Again, after a summer with no precipitation. The lake had become muddy and most trout died out. Now it will be full and blue, admired by the sky.
