as a single snowball fast thrown
rolling innocent down snow covered slopes
gives birth to death a deadly avalanche
as an earthquake shocks silent sleeping land
shaking loose earth faultline fracture centuries hidden
gives birth to crushing destroying shockwave slip landslide
as gathering mind momentum words
echoing writer poets inner voice unleashed raging
gives birth to tsunami flood tides ink pen seeding new landscapes
so a single drop of rain dew point
falling from pregnant heavy black rain clouds
as rain or snow can shower blanket
birth monsoon or winter storm season transformations
waiting dry receptive fertile ground
nurturing plants trees savanna forests jungles
seeds flora fauna regeneration life milk feeds melt rebirthing
