Beneath a soft swath of high cloud ~water gathers into rain for land and sea
bringing growth and hydration to us all
home to life swimming in shallow or in the depths
sustaining life’s chain from minnow to whale
pulls itself slowly towards port, thrumming on a glittering surface,
echoing deep, bringing us goods, clothing and groceries while we watch the clouds go by.
“The massive bulk of the earth does indeed shrink to
insignificance in comparison with the size of the heavens.”
~ Nicolaus Copernicus
