Vijay Pandit Poet Free verse

Two Drops of Water

Two drops of water fell from heaven
Unlike any other, they were in love
Holding each other they stayed together
Dreaming of river and deep blue ocean.

It wasn't easy to skip the flower-garden
And ignore appeal of a thirsty fountain,
But they persevered rushing down street
Being trampled by traffic and splashy feet.

Bouncing, giggling, reaching tributaries
Riding gleefully, foaming, and sprinkling
Jumping in delight, riding wavy vibes
Sensing river was near, rushing with joy.

Panic set in when they got separated
Holding essence of a shattering dream.
Feeling like being abandoned midstream
One drop teared, the other saw cheer.

Drop that teared soon learned to cope
But as the ocean neared, it lost all hope.
Little did it know as it fell into the ocean
Other drop waited to catch it with elation.
