A Raindrop's Journey Poem by soumya pattanaik

I was formed high in the sky
In the womb of a pregnant cloud
"You'll blossom with a purpose"
The god up there vowed.
I dropped on a bright green leaf
As the twinkling sun shined on me
And started rolling down with the sheaf
Of the Divination's foreboding decree
From one leaf to another I rolled
With thoughts of the purpose I held
My journey the Divinity controlled
As into bigger entities I meld
My odyssey continued on and on
Till in my heart restlessness grew
It was then I began to question
The aimless wanderings hitherto
Then the summer dazzled
And moved me from earth to sky
With alacrity I noticed
I was again able to fly
And then I reflected back
On the travails of my destiny
The lives I touched in the course
Of my insignificant journey
The tiny seed I touched soft
Bloomed into full life
How could I ever have thought….
Mine is a meaningless strife? ? ?
I'm a creation of God
Worthless I cannot be
I believe though I'm not told
That the Almighty resides in me…
