Drip drip drip,

Falls the first, the second and the third drop.

Drip drip drip,

Each drop falls down the window sill.

Drip drip drip,

She watches them fall to her glass bowl kept below,
Each drop forming a little pond inside, a pond of raindrops inside a glass bowl.

***

Drip drip drip,

I watch the drops fall to the bowl collecting those little sky pearls.
Then I look up to the hands distributing those pearls to the earth.

Drip drip drip,

I see how we, the creator's pearls fall down.
Just like me those pearls fall
In a giant glass bowl,
But not a pond they form
For we fall into a vast limitless ocean.
