In Transit.

Fay Slimm.

 

 

In Transit.

 

Jewelled with
rainbow translucence roll
rain-bead balls
slowly down outer-windows.

Golden-globe
seed pearls, clear watery
glories slide
in uniform lines, floorward.

Diamonds in
transit they shine and fire
sparks from each
crystalline orb's inner eye.

Smallest gems,
if unnoticed, might seem
irrelevant when
joined by rush into sheen.

Caught however
by eyes with keen poetic
insight rain-drop
beauty bequeaths an ode.

          Aaaaaah, even from the tiniest of natures gems she creates yet another pearl!

            Thanks FAY for sharing your insight into water droplets ~ delightful ! Although water has a simple Molecular Structure H - O - H it is an amazing substance ! Intra-mlecular bonding makes water molecules stick together (other liquids dont do this) to form Water Droplets and surfce tension makes it stick to the wet glass and slide down slowly giving a wonderful & clourful display if light catches the prismatic water drops forming mini rainbows ! Water Droplets in transit is a rare glimse of Nature @ molecular level and an insight into the secret *World of Molecules*. It is these intramolecular foces that cause liquid water to form ICE which is 10% less dense than water causing ponds & lakes to FREEZE from the top downwards. This forms an insulating layer which prevents the whole pond freezing and preserves the Pond Life ~ AMEN ! BRIAN & I have both studied Science @ a higher level ! However the fact that we understand and can explain these things does not diminish the Mystery & Wonder of Nature ~ rather it enhances it ! We say to ourselves *What a Wonderful World !* Science is only thinking GODs thoughts after HIM ~ AMEN !

            Blessings & Peace & Joy & Love

            For long I have been wanting to write about a raindrop, but no matter what your art is unique.

          • kevin browne

            Such beauty exists in every word that's read. Read with the influence of feeling raindrops keep falling on my head with the wisdom you, Fay of capturing magnificent gems and pearls. Just wonderful..!!
