Poetry Lost

One water drop dissolved into the sea. I need to have a think it thought. Floating to the bottom it absorbed the wisdom of the waters. The cold currents, the warm drifts all fit along side in the moment. The droplet was heavy now and all the way at the rocky bottom. It stared in the dark. O it said! O it is time, and the water began to rise. It followed the changing tide. Surfaced with an eye on the sky. H! said the remnant to the sun and they both began to rise like helium, and laugh like nitrogen. Till the sun disappeared behind a cloud, so many clouds, so many other pieces of condensation in conversation, and once again the tear had to fall... into the ocean...

I need to have one more think, that's all.
