Incipient: Power of a Water Drop

The incipient drop
fell down the rocks
carving a path
bypassing any road blocks

Others began to follow
reshaping the landscape
cascading rapidly
causing debris to escape

Down below
rapids begin to form
mighty sounds erupt
fed by a thunderstorm

There are formations
being carved into the rock
a natural artist
creating a landmark

There is much power
in each water drop
nourishment for the land
where the trees and bushes stop

Soon wildlife
come to explore the falls
food for birds and animals
fresh water for all

An incipient water drop
the power of one
the ability to change things
wonder to be done
