~ The element of being ~
A Certain Spider Was Busy All Night Beading In These Drops Of Dew...

Rita Dove
A body you are
Yet you are an existence in lavish form
Immaculately watching yourself
Knowing this is all you
Rays of light
This is where you have been
The other journey is yet to be explored
A droplet is life
So complex in that tiny drop of who you are
Your core thread that connects it all
Is in your soul
Drapes the element of your being
A droplet you are
In palm of life galaxy
