Droplet

Sparkling softly on a blade of grass
Sits a drop of dew teetering on the edge
It joyously basks in Spring's fresh glow
Reflecting multi-hued patterns across my face.

I lay upon the aromatic grass,
And watch as the droplet quivers in excitement
I inhale slowly,
The breeze honey sweet in my lungs

I contemplate the perfect clear orb,
fat and pure before me,
And am contented by the simplicity
of the beauty surrounding me.

I reach out and tip the emerald stalk,
letting it roll lazily onto my finger.
I behold it's magnificence for just a moment
A priceless jewel in it's own right

As it evaporates in the morning sun,
I smile, feeling blessed
To have witnessed such a flawless entity
So often overlooked in our busy society
