A Heartwarming Nature Poem About Hope & Wonder
Pallapuram Prabakaran
Like a bindi on red silk,
A dewdrop gleamed on the rose.
A Sparrow circled around,
Wishing to sip that crystal glow.
Yet—before it’s blinking eyes,
The drop vanished, gone like magic!
“What wonder is this!” it cried.
“Is water a thief?
Has my thirst no cure,
Bright lord of day?”
Its frail wings drooped in sorrow.
The little creature stood still,
Eyes wide, lost in awe.
Then—behold! Another pearl
Shone on a waiting petal.
Joy swelled within its heart;
It cheered aloud in delight,
Drawing close again to drink.
But with the flutter of its own wings,
The droplet melted away
Right before its eyes!
It drooped again in despair,
Then suddenly stirred, renewed,
And flew with life reborn.
A gleaming drop, trembling with breeze,
Settled into the flower’s fold.
There it drank, gently
It’s beak touching beauty.
Overflowing with bliss,
It sang a sweet melody,
And rose to the sky,
Happy and free!
