drop of water

I was still and calm
like a large lake in
a deep deep valley
but then you came
as a drop of water
creating ripples just
with a small touch

Ripples like so many
others, created by
stones that were thrown
but then I could see
all stones thereafter
but now I am searching
for you; my drop of water
that created these ripples

I am unable to find you
anywhere in my depths
anywhere along my banks
I ask air that flows around
It laughs at me loudly
as if  I am now insane
asking something weird


But I know and you know
you came in me as a drop
created ripples like no other
then where are you now
cause I want to see you
more than all other  that
had created ripples in me
are now settled in in me

O! my lovely drop of water
where have you vanished
and finally when I call out
to you O! drop of water
I see the whole of me stand
and respond in unison

You are me and I never knew
but then why do I seek
your shadow in my being
your presence in my mornings
your kisses in every dusk
for you to come and wake me
by your touch at each dawn
