One Body

Drops,
drops of water,
infinitude of pools,
views of life differentiations.

Drops,
drops of water beading,
pooling and flowing as rivers,
from a common source.

Drops,
dews dropped from above,
flowing to the beat of a drum,
wellspring musical.

Drops,
in, of, to, with, for;
form omnipresent,
from the one to the many.

Drops,
ancient and sacred,
draw life into being,
bring lives into union.

Drops,
compose and complete
the divine and infinite message:
life is love, love is one.

Drops,
divine messengers,
flow through you,
flow through us all;

Drops
bind us in communion,
and call us to love one another.
Let us never be confounded on this point.
