A Drop of Rain

A drop of rain 
That touches the crown 
To awaken a mind
Deep in slumber.
Charting its way
Through tangled tresses
Is that single drop of rain.

A drop of rain
Falling on eyes
Dry with pain
Seeping in through the lashes
Salt from the eyes cleansed
Now revealed to them
The hidden magic 
Of a single drop of rain.

A drop of rain 
That slides in delicately 
Through parched lips
Parted for prayer
Reviving a soul long dead
Is the magic 
Of a single drop of rain.

A drop of rain 
Caressing calloused feet
Touching tired toes
Tingling the senses
Nerves now alive 
To the magic 
Of a single drop of rain.

A drop of rain 
Hunting it's way
Down to a broken heart 
Hopes rebuilt, desires renewed 
Enchanted, I stand 
In flesh and blood 
Waiting for magic..
For a taste of the rain..
