Water, Oh Water....! Poem by Vidya Pandarinath

Little dew drops toss
On the blades of grass,
Dance with pearly sheen ;
Roaring cascade spills clean
The colour-bow to adorn
The deep vale beneath borne;
The rustling playful water
Enlivens, flowing along with splatter;
Falling from the laden skies,
The droplets soothe and slake
The tired, thirsty soil flake;
Being the only last feed
For the dying mouth in need -
Yet in excess and out of the way,
May presage the allusive Doomsday....!
