The Imbalancing Ruse

Fresh and serene droplets rest in galore
As the dawn smiles on them to adore 
The tiny prettiness in spectral mode
Downs from out of the heavenly abode ;
In dainty drips and drizzles   the elixir
Enlivens  and recharges the aqua-spur

Beyond the brim and out of norm
It sinks the floater and defaces the firm -
Mounds or  mansions,weed or tree
Huge or little - are all toppled free ;
Strange are the ways of the cosmic strain
Be it the  wind ,fire,tremor or rain


Atop the floating debris and decay,
The  self-centred biped strides astray
With a whimsy wand and febrile chill ,
Streching the  vicious arm for infinite fill
Of the precious trash ,never for any use;
Yet as ' trade ' -  the  imbalancing  ruse.
