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..
