Granularity
Have you ever licked a snowflake
Felt its crystal heart evaporate
Beautiful complexity briefly riding
On a red hot rodeo?
Have you ever blown a dandelion
Seen parachutes of wishseeds fall
Gossamer batalions to the wind
Scattered mission - no recall?
Have you ever heard a petal fall
Listened to golden hiss on air
The roll of nature ventured
In turning of the dial?
Next time you catch the rain
Feel its splish of light on hand
And see the raindrops form
Into tiny oceans held.
Think how complex
we all are.
