The Trail

A tear falls upon a leaf one day.
Glistens in the summer rays.
Slides down upon a blade of grass.
There it rest for a while.
Along the narrow way it goes.
Upon a gentle stream it comes.
Follows along the waters way,
Twists and turns, it drifts along the sparkling stream.
It comes to rest upon a rock.
The sun does come to soak it up.
Leaves but an empty spot.
A long forgotten tear
Fell upon a leaf one day.
