A Raindrop

 

What is small wherever - ever is?

How is it that the universe Is found when one assumes the infinite

and too, understands the quantum degree that sets the essence of why a single raindrop,

upon a leaf, images of all things knowable and leap in wonder to the unknowable

in reflection of how one leaf is one of many on a branch and that each limb is one of many

upon a single tree – a tree found among multitudes of trees in the woods

and the woods are many places in a forest and the one forest is part of many landscapes

that sits below the mountains of one range and that belt across the highlands

that stand to drain the rain unto the rivers - byway of the endless rills, creeks and streams

that flows across the deltas to find a source. To form a loch; a kettle; a lagoon;

a lake of many bodies of life.  A tree of life that feeds the open land; that sustains

the prairies of grasses and that formed a fjord; an estuary that follows a gravitational course 

to join into a gulf that knows the secrets of the deep seas; immense oceans that hide the

continent’s deepness; that keep hidden the age of this single blue sphere - perceived to be

in solitude; a lone planet amongst the immense space that forms a universal family.

One member planet belonging to the sun’s tree.

A sun of many suns that create a humble galaxy – the Milky Way galaxy found in a family of

a cluster of galaxies.  All accounted for within the infinite tree that is found upon a single

tree of endless trees and all of it rests within a single spark of the unfathomable –

Everything held upon a single leaf - a singularity.

Everything one needs to know begins within a single raindrop.
