This Poem is a Globe, a Drop, and a Book

~ Candace

This poem is a spinning globe

This poem is a raindrop on a leaf

This poem is a book

–

This poem spins the world we know

making us all a little dizzy

This poem defines each country

with colors that blur together

as it spins, creating a new world

This poem is a colorful globe

–

This poem is a raindrop that sits on

a leaf waiting for the sun to embrace it

to lift it into the sky, send it away

and let it fall again in field or forest

This poem is a patient raindrop

–

This poem is a book of words

trapped between covers until opened

by some lover who sets them free

carries them like a bouquet

and bestows them on friends and strangers

This poem is a bouquet of words

–

This poem is a globe of many colors

This poem is a traveling raindrop

This poem is a book of flowers
