Effortless

Rain droplets on crepe myrtle, July 2024
 

 

Like straw into gold
the raindrops become silver
without the spinning



* a reference to the children's fairytale, "Rumpelstiltskin" - who spins straw into gold. I am stuck by how the small drops cling to the edges of branches and leaves - and hold so much light.
