We are drops of the Great Big Ocean!

 As drops of water are we born:
Drops of same rains, of different rains,
At varied times and places!
Flowing effortlessly free:
As collective drops:
A steep fall to the pleasure of many,
Or a steady stream rolling over rocks.
A slow but steady flow,
Silently Pebbling rocks,
Sometimes, hit by huge stumbling ones,
That we break together,
One rock at a time, or several many:
Over days, or months,
Or decades or centuries.

On we flow:
Quenching thirst of many,
Nourishing lives around
Greening and preening;
Satiating many a scorching burns,
Absorbing the heat within.
Evaporated and condensed
Up and down we go:
Life after life,
Form after form,
Shape after shape;
Together with different drops,
Wrestling against a few
No one drop significant,
No one drop insignificant.
Flowing, feeding, fighting,
Cleansing and blending:
All the while,
Breaking barriers, building lives and enabling livelihoods.
-For drops of the great big ocean of Universe, we are!!
