Falling Pearls

The cuckoo heralds their arrival
The scent of Petrichor confirms it

Falling into the tough shells of oysters,
Turn into elegant pearls

Falling on the hard coats of seeds in fields
Allow them to send tiny sprigs out

Falling through the ceilings of caves
Form hanging icicles

Falling from hills and rocks
Metamorphose into spectacular cascades

Falling on the ground and seep into it
Evolve an invisible sub-terrestrial water body

Falling on stones and pavements
Present a concert with rhythmic splashes

Falling on the flushed cheeks of the child
Tickle and makes it wriggle.
