Odd trinkets

On a summer evening

a sudden unexpected shower

the torrid affair of heat 

needs some respite

drops of rain splash 

dull day turns green lustrous

do rain drops too converse? 

large one, asks magnanimously

oh tiny one, how do you do? 

tiny one grouches 

I may disappear with a blow of wind

perfect spherical one 

looks like an untouched puritan 

some raindrops collide together

few form odd trinkets

several others string into patterns 

mist and drizzle chuckle

the small shy ones away

large magnanimous one says

let's become one boundless stream

she recollects her brief tease 

with the rain drops

on a rainy evening 

she runs to catch

dripping drop off the leaf 

now hiding a tear drop 

like an ancient treasure

to be never unearthed 

in her realm
