...Drop

enjoy the fall...

The ants, they scatter

A glance upwards

That horrible shrieking

As something falls.

It looks so tiny

From a distance

A spec of color

In the blackest space.

With silent wonder

And tear filled eyes

They stare up, frozen

Just in time.

Hearts are racing

Stomachs turning

Heads are aching

Fear consumes.

Here it comes now

Closer and closer

Nothing can stop it now

When will this end?

 

Time passes

...drop

Eternity passes

...drop

Life passes

...drop

 

Always and forever

...drop

This poem was as innocent as a child and as vivid as a rainbow. It was full of wonder and it sparked my imagination. I honestly enjoyed reading this beautiful poem. Kudos.
