a breath of the morning, dew,
appearing before us at our waking,
a dance of water droplets, jewels,
rimming, covering leaves, flower petals…
each droplet of dew placed precisely,
each pearl breathed, a prayer,
not random, placed by the Creator,
a feast for our eyes to share…
droplets of dew, liquid glass,
like melted sugar, dabbed,
an infinite number of dots,
stars, brushed on each petal…
living flesh sprayed by droplets,
a repeating pattern, precision,
frozen for us in our memory,
present, captured forever…
