My petite dew drop!

Confined to the four walls and feeling suffocated for long,
I could sense my thoughts wandering in a direction that I knew was wrong!
And so I dared the stairs to my terrace with my crutches along!

Enjoying and soaking the warm sun and hearing the birds chirp on the tall trees,
I realised how much beauty I had missed around me!

Inspite of my weakened vision my half closed eyes,
spotted a piece of beauty and so I scrutinised!

A dew drop on a yellow flower petal,
was the fascination that had caught my spectacle!

In a bat of an eye I felt connected to it,
quivering on the petal which had nestled it,
as the enticing sunny flower danced with ease,
in the balmy morning breeze!

As the sun rays fell on my petite dew drop,
as if was in deep slumber it arose and woke up!
Taking a breather on the smooth amber petal,
my tiny friend got busy osmosing the warm arising morning sol.

The soft sunup breeze, naughty and playful as always,
tried to dodder up the yellow flower as it was about to laze!

As this frolicking continued between the flower and the breeze,
I could feel the terror gripping the dew drop making it freeze!

As gravity pulled it towards the edge of the foliage,
the dew drop dreaded the thought of the nearing ravage! 

oh..I wondered why was this happening?
The dew drop was in a battle to stop slipping!

Why did my life have to break and change?
Things were comfortable, safe and easy to manage. 

I could feel the dew drop was terrified like me,
fearing the fall in the unknown.. dense dark and deep!

Sure of falling and being smashed into pieces hard to find,
like how I had felt of losing my mind!

How can the day which had just begun
have such a quick and painful end?
Would my battles to survive turn my life meaningless and redundant?

It seemed so unfair to see the dew drop do whatever it could,
to cling to the helpless petal, but little did it know it was no use!

I too realised that there was no point clinging to my past with ends that don't join!

Finally, the dew drop decides to let go, surrendering to the pull of gravity,
Down, down..down it fell..anticipating eternity!

As it fell down a reflection of itself it saw,
coming closer and closer until finally...
the fear transformed into deep joy!

My tiny friend dived into the vastness and was no more a drop,
since it was a puddle of water made of thousands of such dew drops!

Though my dew drop friend was no more,
I was happy to see it in the plashet without fearing anymore.

I resolved this is what I wanted too,
to live a life like a never wilting bloom!
To become one with the universe as a whole,
with utmost sincerity by my body and soul!
