Life in a Raindrop


Peeping through my spyglass
I head out in the rain
in search of
New Worlds

I find a whole galaxy of watery planets!


Ethereal, transluscent
hanging by
a silvery
thread


Twin planets
feed each other
on a black, metallic
bed


Ghostly grey,
a portent world
so dark 
I'm filled with
dread


Blue-eyed
water world
you'd think it would be
Red


These
crystal balls and prisms
assure me
winter's
fled



But best of all
are raindrop worlds
that tell me
spring's
ahead

    I like your second and second last photo. A good attempt at shooting raindrops. I tried too but they weren't artistic enough for me to do a post.

    I love raindrop photos - I looked very closely as I thought you might be reflected, but you were hiding.

    Wonderful! One of the photography instructors I had gave us an assignment to photograph a drop of water. Any of these images would satisfy that requirement.

    Do this mean the snow is finally melting? The water droplets make such interesting photos especially with little reflections in them! Have a great WE!

    Truly a masterpiece! Congratulations! How did you ever get to shoot them that way??! Only Rosemary can do it, I know :)
    Glad to see the rain coming on your roof instead of snow.

    That is a beautiful write. I love the connection to the universe. Rain drops are so reflective to me. And when they happen here, I enjoy sitting outside watching it all happen. The plants look beautiful with all those lovely little beads hanging off their leaves. Nicely captured:)
