Rain

Water rolling lightly down

Streaking across goose fleshed skin

Creating soothing, cooling paths

Washing away the clinging dirt

 

Broken from the fall

Each droplet a river in its own right

Streaming down, towards the earth

Dispersed, but looking for solid ground

 

One after another they coalesce

Catching on a curled fingertip

A grip that cannot be held

Gathering strength before the plunge
