If I Were a Rain Drop

Pink Rose in the RainThis poem was written circa 1975. I’d forgotten all about it until my mother called me and told me she wanted to read to me a poem written by a 9-year old girl. When she was done, she asked me if I remembered it. I said it sounded familiar … maybe I’d read it on the Internet. That’s when she told me I was the 9-year old girl!

If I were a rain drop:
I’d turn into vapor,
and go back to the trees
to help them make paper!

If I were a raindrop
I’d turn around and around
and then I’d turn and face the ground.
