A Raindrop's Journey
Follow a single raindrop as it falls from the sky, interacting with the world below and eventually finding its way back to the ocean.
From the sky's dark veil, I fell straight like a tear
A tiny droplet, with a story to clear
I traced the wind's path, in a winding course
Gathering speed, with a rhythmic force
I danced on the leaves, with a gentle touch
Drumming a beat, in a symphony so clutch
I flowed like a river, through the city's veins
Reflecting the world, in my tiny raindrop pains
I merged with the ocean, in a salty embrace
My journey complete, in a watery space
Yet, I'll rise again, in the cycle's sway
A raindrop's journey, in an endless way.

>That was a bad idea. I thought you knew… >Oh, the pathos! I don’t really know you as well as I should. In fact, I may not know the real you at all. That essential, sparkling you that you only reveal to a select few. Had I been paying more attention to the stories you are so fond of telling, in which you are invariably author, narrator and protagonist, I would not have been so foolish as to set you up on a blind date. After all, no friend has ever done anything of the kind for another. That’s preposterous. What is a friend, really?
