"Life is but a day; A fragile dewdrop on it's perilous way .... "

Quote by _John Keats

__________________________

 
Each morning I find dewdrop beads,
little gems like jewels;
in my garden a dewdrop bleeds,
as a tender fragile leaf feeds.
Morning dewdrops follow no rules;
they need no tricks or tools !

They sparkle in the morn' sunshine,
in a nature romance;
with each sweet flower, bloom and vine,
until with all beauty they twine.
I adore this waltzing slow dance;
this daily happenstance !

Like dewdrops our own life is brief,
each day we hang waiting;
imagine living on a leaf,
where we weep pearls of mournful grief.
Our heart and soul is pulsating;
for life captivating !
