Miraculous Water

We fall to earth from heaven creating a beautiful rainbow spectrum
experiencing glorious colour up and down and sometimes become a golden crown
Some of us float back up to join others and fall to earth as stone
some keep their distance but in the sun become sparkle tone
sometimes all united we roll on the shore others floating gently down to meet more
some of us joined together some of us not tethered some of us float gently down to earth like a feather
this happens when it's biting cold weather eventually all of us team together in one way or another
And we have we face many obstacles one after the other
together we could conquer mountains of stone in any land
turning even solid rock on to sand many and sometimes tough was our journey
but we always stuck together in massive flurries
We are an all-sustaining force in the world of life a pure gift from heaven unified to help us deal with the strife
through every kind of trial and many of changes we cover the earth and all of the ranges
forever flowing unified in and out
I am crystalline and a pure raindrop joining with more of my family
