L'aura del Campo

Delta [77]

Delta

         to participate

We were mere droplets
brought together in clouds
that shrouded mountains.
We fell from grace,
gaining speed in rivulets
that joined to cascade
in waterfalls and rapids.
We became complacent
as land flattened out
and we meandered
as if there were no tomorrow.
Now we have entered the delta
spread apart by time and distance
searching for each other.
Soon our journey will be over
united again by the seashore
perhaps to rejoin the clouds.
