In the misty morning air,
Raindrops ride the skies under gravity's tug.
Perched on a rock at pond's edge,
I watch wind rock limbs of overhanging trees.
Raindrops drip,
Surface ripples.
Beetle sized waves collide, coalesce.
Whirligigs whirl about, ride, and spiral upon the water's tension,Their path unimpeded by stormy sea.
Over, around, and through the waves,
They've plotted a course.
They'll see it through.
A resolute way to journey through life.
The way of the Whirligig Beetle.
